Geocache Description:

Enjoy the beautiful view of the townsite below and the surrounding area from Mount Norquay. You might even spot some curious Bighorn Sheep on the way!


Please note: There is an entrance fee for this park!

There will be no need to climb any mountains - parking can be found at N51 11.838 W115 35.283. The last 30-40m of the hike is what caused a slight increase in terrain rating.

The cache container is a typical square tupperware-style with a clear body and clear lid. The cache contents are currently space releated, but don't feel obligated to continue that theme. Originally we had wanted to place a space-theme cache but that idea fell through. Any 'spacey' locations we scouted out were so incredibly boring... (GRIN)

The initial contents are as follows:
  • Ambassador Spock travel bug
  • Meteor ball
  • Alien keychain
  • Alien embryo (ooooh!)
  • R2D2 bookmark
  • Star Wars mini-puzzle
  • Star Wars trading cards
And of course...
  • A log book
  • A pathetic pencil!
(You may want to bring your own pen/pencil!)

I have some photos of the fantastic view but I'll leave the picture-posting to the cachers who visit.
