5 Star Climbing Geocoin now Skeleton Travel Bug~ Go To Razor Back Mountain Cache! GC659DV FOR FTF!!!

This fine Travel Bug Skeleton wants to go to Nevada! There it wants to find the most under rated D/T cache I have ever seen. See: Razorback Mountain GC659DV ! It is rated only a 1 1/2 , 2 on the Difficult and Terrain Ratings yet it has had not one finder since 2015. It is not a easy area to get too. It is a quiet area for sure. Sounds great!!!!I would like to go to get the FTF! But, this cache would actually bring my overall Terrain Rating down if I found it! Ridiculous! Just Ridiculous Ratings!! LOL! Read about the trail road below!Go on up there and get the First To Find !!!!! Take pictures of caching FUN and Post them !!! Bring extra water and spare tires.A Log about the roads to the windmill and area:Ken calls it the "Dean Molen" route and I call it the "Ken Jones" route as neither one of us wants to admit how we got to where we started the hike from (Near Drip Spring). The road up White Rock Canyon (accessed via the Soldier Meadow ranch) was horrible. One stretch that uses a shelf road to drop down to Paiute Windmill could be potentially fatal if you make a driving mistake where some of the road has fallen away. I'd never do that again. Then the road past Chipmunk Spring is miserable and tested our vehicles to their limits. The advantage is that we cut the elevation gain in half but we were both sweating the drive back out and were happy to see the gates of Soldier Meadows ranch again. Don't let the above description whet your appetite, that elevation gain savings is not worth it. I share this info only because in looking at the maps as we did, you might be tempted to try the roads back of the ranch as they look feasible. Even one of the ranch hands told us he was freaked out by that road down to Paiute Windmill and had turned around on an ATV after a partial attempt to go down it. He couldn't believe we had done it. Are Ken and I amazing drivers or just lucky? I'd say we were lucky to have pulled off that drive but it took every ounce of 4WD'ing skill that we had. As Ken says on his TR, NOT RECOMMENDED.

What the coin looked like!
