Geocache Description:

Located off of West Side Road. The road can be muddy and rutty when it rains. Altitude is 7,600 ft.

If you are out searching for Starman's West Side Road series, drive a short distance from his #2 cache and find a neat surprize in the woods! We parked at N32 49.207 W105 50.050 which was 1.1 miles from where we parked to find Starman's cache. The cache is .13 miles from that location. However, we looked on a map and saw that if you park at the junction of Burleson Ridge and Long Ridge, the cache is approximately 400 ft into the woods. The container has a log and pen, and a couple of small items, including a trackable digital fish. Note: The original cache was muggled so we went there today (4/12/08) to replace it. When we got there, we found that the Forestry Service had done a LOT of tree cutting and it's a huge mess! We also noticed that they've made it a "permit firewood cutting area" so if you need any firewood, that's the place to go:-) But it will be a hundred years before enough people go there for firewood and clear out that mess. Because it's now practically an obstacle course to get to it, we've changed the "terrain difficulty" from a 1.5 to a 2.5. The new container has a log, a pen and a few small trade items.
