Geocache Description:

The X marks this spot
See La Platas to the north
Cache is at your feet

The first cache set by the NMThackers and the VAThackers.

Based on littleamerica's comment and suggestion:
Best access is from the South using West Blanco Blvd and Wilderness Park Drive (just a dirt road heading north from Blanco Blvd, when muddy the road may be tough for non 4x4 but can still be walked). Intersection is at approximately N 36 43.128 and W 108 00.170 This takes you over public land just outside the city limits. You can drive up to the top (and actually quite a ways towards the cache if you want) or you can walk it all.

Access can also be made from the North via CR 5030, but some private land exists on the East side of the cache.
