Geocache Description:

This is just off the main road that takes you to the Cave Lake State Park area outside of Ely. Park at the Steptoe Creek Trail area. It is just a short hike across the bridge, up the trail to the left that then curves to the right. Not much further and your gps should take you about 15 feet off the trail to your right. Please rehide the ammo can so it will stay in place during the runoff in the Spring.

We drew an Elk and Deer tag this year for this area. We were going to hide this cache in our camp spot but didn't want anyone to find our special place off the beaten path. Also our area requires a high clearance and 4x4 to get to. We decided the paved road to Cave Lake would be a better place and get more visitors. We hope we made it easy enough that if you make the effort to go after it you will be able to find it. Oh yes we did fill both our tags. We think we put in some pretty good swag so come prepared to trade accordingly.
