Geocache Description:


Camo'd pill bottle zip-tied to a piñon branch at face level.

Around 7400 feet above sea level. Significant uphill hike to get here, no matter the direction. Best seems to be up Mano trail to saddle, then northeast and up. I don't recommend from the East, unless it's from the northeast after taking 3 Pistolas trail up to Embudo trail, then vectoring in from the northeast.

No need to climb any boulders, but you will be standing on a flat rock near an edge when you grab the cache.

Leave the game trail to the west at the waypoint, walk through the rock tunnel of sorts, come out onto a flat rock surface with a view of the canyon.

Hopefully helpful photos are here too.

Congratulations to super hiking duo budabeli and thoehn for FTF!

Enjoy!
