Geocache Description:

Parking at N 49 03.649 W 113 54.548

PLEASE READ! VERY IMPORTANT!
Please DO NOT place any tradeables inside this Cache. As this is found inside a National Park we need to respect the rules, and keep all tradeable items out. They may attract animals, and this endangers both your fellow cachers, and others on the trail. Thank you for understanding, and enjoy your caching.

The hike will challenge you, as it is uphill on a wide hardpacked dirt trail. Watch for rocks and roots that are poking through the dirt. Watch for Muggles as there will be heavy foot traffic, especially on nice sunny summer days! A great place to spend a whole day!

Most adults will have no problems with this, but it will raise your heart rate! We saw several families out with smaller children, but you will not be able to use a stroller on this trail, so you will have to carry them or they need to be able to walk.

The Cache is located at about the halfway mark of the trail. The terrain gets a little harder as you continue, but it's well worth it to go to the top and see the amazing view of the Mountains and the Lake.

Please do not go off-trail! It will damage the pristine environment, and is unnecessary to find the Cache. We would suggest wearing good shoes with closed toes (no flip-flops!) or you may be limping back down to your car. The cache is a small lock-and-lock box wrapped in Camo duct tape.

There are no tradeables inside as it is inside a National Park, and we ask that you leave nothing behind but your story in the log book. There are 2 pencils and 2 logbooks (one is just a spare for now). Please leave the pencils inside. They have been pre-sharpened on both ends. Please leave your name, the date, and tell us an amazing story!

There is a special prize for the First to Find! Will help with the snack for your next outing!
