Always a pleasure to visit the namesake spot. Thanks for pointing it out with a cache.



Molly's Portal View

By: Miriam & Molly and Peter & Bella Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 3.5 Container: Regular


As airsax mentions, the direct approach to this cache is not going to work. bthomas muttered under his breath that he wished he had ropes, but fortunately for my laundry, that was not a possibility. In our explorations, we found a wonderful cliff pocket meadow above the cache. There were two plaques commemorating the spot as a final resting place. Quite a nice way to pass the time, if I do say so. Eventually we found an approach at the correct elevation. The signs mentioning that 3 people have ridden their bikes off the trail were sobering, but I had to smirk at the under-lying message: Don't be the fourth because the BLM will close the trail and then nobody will get to come up here. Great views, of course, and a letterbox about 10' away. TFTC.



Forks in the Spider Trail

Fantastic views from this spot. I loved this trip to Poison Spider Mesa. TFTC.



A Spiders View of Moab

By: conrenae Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 3.5 Container: Regular


Every view keeps getting better than the next. I loved the challenge of getting there, and the reward of seeing where we would come out above Moab. TFTC.



Poison Spider Side Trail

Thanks for all the caches on Poison Spider Mesa. What a great day.



Spider's View of the Colorado

By: conrenae Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 3.5 Container: Regular


I found this cache while wheeling with bthomas and airsax. Lots of fun and now I've got a brag sticker for the jeep! Several folks on ATVs watched us up the first obstacle and then turned around: I'm not sure if we did anything to bolster their confidence. Heh. TFTC.



Belly Scratcher

By: ZenBabes Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 3.5 Container: Regular


No belly scratching for us...perhaps a little bumper banging on the way down though. Good spotting all the way, and that included finding the cache. Thanks!

Just low hanging fruit on our way out of town. Thanks for the quickie.



Picnic Rock

By: e3brown Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


Found on our way to drop airsax off at the Grand Junction airport. Desolate, but beautiful. TFTC.



Wells...theres a Cache there!

By: joshgreenrules Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro


A stark spot with a serious reminder of a dark decision in our history. Thanks for pointing out the spot.



CO Sign for Cache - East

By: geo$ing Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Regular


After finding this cache, we had a spirited discussion of whether or not it would count for CO in the stats or not. Kind of a bummer how much trash there is here, although I'm sure a lot more than cachers make the stop. Thanks.



Mopigeon's Jam Cache

By: biggertrux Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Micro


The others opted for one side the the fence, and I took the other, which turned out to be correct. Cute camouflage, although it didn't fool me for an instant. TFTC.



Grand Junction Travel Bug Cache

By: MEH 298 Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Small


I'm just getting around to logging this cache. I dropped 4 bugs in, and I see that they have already been grabbed from me, which is what you get when you're two weeks late. I'm glad they're on to new adventures. TFTC!
