Geocache Description:

This is a camo peanut butter jar. The cache is located on Private Property but you have been given permission to enter.

Be sure to enjoy the scenery here. It's the best in Ruidoso.

This is one of the seven caches based on King Arthur's story.
After King Arthur built his Camelot, Merlyn took him down to a lake. This was the home of the mystical Lady of the Lake. After following Merlyn's instructions to call to the Lady, the Lady appeared in the middle of the lake holding a beautiful sword. She threw the sword toward Arthur, who caught it easily. This was Excalibur.
Excalibur stayed with Arthur until his death. As king Arthur lay dying, he instructed Sir Kay to take the sword back to the lake and throw it the water. Even though he didn't want to, Sir Kay followed his orders and threw Excalibur into the lake. As it neared the water, the hand of the Lady rose and caught the sword. She then took Excalibur down into the water, never to be seen again.

If you look out over the mountain in front of you, you see a lake. Look very closely and you might just see the Lady in the middle of this lake.
Good Luck on your Quest.
