Geocache Description:

Starting point:
Start from the parking lot at the junction of the Dry Canyon Trail and the Bonneville Shoreline Trail in Lindon.
Terrain:
Terrain from the parking lot is almost level. Having just done Denali's Cliff and UTM, we wanted an easy cache up here. Altitude 5475 ft. Less than 100 feet from the parking lot.

Starting point:
Take 2000 North in Orem to the top, just before it turns to the right and becomes Skyline, turn left into the Canberra development (if you come to Heather Rd, you have just passed the turn). Follow the road up, until the pavement ends. Keep going on the dirt up to the gravel parking lot at the trailheads for the Dry Canyon Trail and the Bonneville Shoreline Trail.
 
Passenger cars are up here regularly, so unless there is lots of snow or mud it shouldn't be a problem for any car.
This cache is a .30 caliber ammo can.
 
About the cache:
My son wanted to just name it The Dollar Cache, because the things in are are worth about a dollar. There were lots of similarly named caches, so to distinguish it, we put in part of the location in the name (it is at the mouth of Dry Canyon). Could have also called it the Dry Shoreline Cache, since it's near the junction of the Dry Canyon Trail and the Bonneville Shoreline Trail.
 
Oringinal contents:
  • $1 Happy Fun Ball
  • $1 Silver Knight action figure
  • $1 New York, Big Apple Change Bag
  • 20 Nickels
  • 4 Virginia State Quarters (with the tall ships on back)
  • 4 AA Batteries (Great for tired GPS's that are continuing on to Denali's Cliff and UTM (aka, Denali's Summit).
  • Super Whirler
  • Purple ball
  • 3 pens
  • Log Book
 
UTM Coordinates (having just done Denali's Cliff and UTM):
12T0442574, 4465892

This is an excellent cache for the requirement "CACHE WITH GREAT VIEW" in the COIN QUEST game. It would also meet the "CACHE PLACED IN 2003" requirement and, if you're desperate, the "FOREST CACHE" requirement.
