Geocache Description:


Up for an eerie drive and a moderate hike on Broken Back Mountain, with only the sound of gunfire, bombs and shouting military personnel?


Welcome to "Broken Silence"

Continuing onward from "Talking Heads," the ridge slowly narrows before coming to an abrupt point:



To find the cache, you will need to cross what we dubbed "Man's Neck." It is really quite straight forward, and an easy version of the sandstone bridge in my "Majesty" Geocache. But to get to here is a little bit of a trick. As you will find, just following the compass will lead to an impressive rock without any easy way down. A T4.5/5 route can be done with a small hand line and at least one competent climber, just to the NE of the very endpoint. However, a much easier route to the lower level can be used with the "reference point" provided.

Happy Caching!!!
