Geocache Description:

This cache offers a 4x4 "high" and views to kill. It's one of my favorite little known 4WD roads. If you have a fear of heights then this one is not for you.

Drive to Montezuma, CO and take the first left from the dirt road (not where pavement ends). Once thru the town you will be on the FDR264 road that goes thru some private land. (Stay on the road in this area). 4-wheel all the way to the Continental Divide. The faint of heart can park on the north side of the Peak and hike the rest of the way. The more adventuresome can drive right to the cache. Full size rigs in my 4x4 club have driven (very carefully) right to the cache. (Large parking area)

The road is not technically hard but has a pucker factor of 5 stars. Experienced drivers will find it an easy but exciting 4x4 road. CA4WDCI road rating of 4

Please cover the cache well before leaving and be sure to check out the other great 4x4 roads in the Montezuma area!
