Near the original townsite of Creede, this cache is about 2.8 miles up the road from the Bachelor Mine self-tour signs. Cache is located off an old track.
Head north from Creede and stop at the self-tour signs to read some of the history of this area. You will need to go right at the fork towards Phoenix Park. Road is dirt/gravel with some rocks. Four wheel drive is not required to reach the parking area but low slung cars will have trouble with some of the rocks. There is parking about 2.8 miles from the self-tour signs, although if you continue up the road you can actually pull off the road closer to the cache. If you find yourself walking up or down a very steep slope, there is an easier approach. You do not need to go cross-country to get to the cache.
While you're here take a hike up towards Phoenix Park and enjoy the views over the beaver dam. There is also a lot of fishing in the area.
