Otero Mesa Geocache


fffffffff-
I planted another geocache today. This one I placed in a very scenic location up on Otero Mesa at 5,287 feet MSL. I guess it is about a 25 mile drive east of El Paso, Texas on Highway 62/180. This is the message and contents inside:

If found, please do not remove.

This geocache contains low value “treasures.” If you take one, please replace it with one of your own.

Please sign the log indicating the date and other information you think relevant. The ball point pen is from the 100 year celebration of the Aachen, Germany main train station.

The initial treasures in this cache in August 2008 are some polished rocks, a Ferrari and a Cobra, a double-decker London bus, an olive drab army pickup truck, a disco ball, a tourist memento from the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, a broach, a set of plastic beads, a match book from the Route 66 diner in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and an Elvis Presley award from the 1978 2nd international American wanderung in Bad Kreuznach, Germany.


Help in finding: Park at the picnic area.
Walk over the stairs and continue north for about 0.21 miles to
