Geocache Description:

A short steep hike with views of the New Denver Glacier, Vahalla Park, and the Slocan Lake.

When driving West on HWY 31A between Three Forks and New Denver you will enjoy awesome views of the New Denver Glacier. New Denver Glacier is a place we would love to place a cache but because of the difficulty to reach the alpine meadows at the bottom of the glacier we are sure that the cache would never be found. It requires boat access followed by a hike that only those with the constitution of a mountain goat would enjoy - it gains 6540 feet over 8.8kms. So instead we have hidden this cache where you can stop your vehicle and take a closer look at the glacier. You will need to park at a little pullout. Across the road you will see a steep animal trail. Follow it a short distance to where the cache is hidden. You will be looking for a small lock and lock container. Don't foget to enjoy the view when opportunity allows it.
