Across The Divide

GeoTour2018

This GeoTour offers a large selection of caches (Earth Caches, Virtuals, and Traditional caches) in Estes Park, Grand Lake and RMNP for you to find, relating to our History. Each cache has either a passcode or a question to answer about your find. Record your answers and passcodes in your Passport, and log your caches online at Geocaching.com. Be sure to submit the answers for EarthCaches and Virtual Caches, and post your photos

You can earn souvenir coins for Grand Lake and Estes Park by finding 10 caches on each side of the Divide and getting the RMNP stamp in the nearest National Park Visitor Center. If you find & log any 25 caches on this Passport, and get 2 RMNP stamps, you also earn a souvenir GeoTour PathTag. All 2018 caches (*) are required to earn the pathtag. Finish the entire GeoTour, with all 3 RMNP stamps, for the trackable 2018 Across the Divide Geocoin.

Complete this Passport with the codes and answers written in, and the National Park stamps, for 10 caches, 25 caches or all caches. Bring your Passport to the Estes Park Visitor Center or Grand Lake Visitor Center, where you can collect your Town coins and GeoTour PathTag. The trackable Geocoin is available at the Estes Park Visitor Center. One 2018 Geocoin will be awarded per passport, or geocacher. All coins subject to availability. Please visit our website for updates.

Remember, geocaches are dynamic entities. Availability may be limited by weather (snow), muggles, cache maintenance issues, road conditions and other factors. Watch weather conditions, including lightning storms.

Be careful of your footing, keep your distance from wildlife, and remain aware of your surroundings. Respect persons, property and wildlife. Leave no trace. Have fun!

The National Park Service maintains a Leave No Trace policy, therefore traditional caches with containers and log sheets are not permitted in RMNP. However, Virtual Caches and EarthCaches, with lessons in geology, are suitable. Be sure to read the cache pages for relevant questions, and send the answers to cache-owners at Geocaching.com when logging these types of caches. We hope you post your photos on the EarthCache & Virtual pages as well. (S): These EarthCaches and Virtual Caches are on Trail Ridge Road, which is only open in summer, late May to mid-October; it may also close when weather makes the road unsafe. (H): Caches with a short hike.

Caution: Some earthcaches are located as high as 11,800 ft elevation. These are all on paved areas and walking is minimal. However, if you feel light-headed, become nauseous, or have other symptoms of Altitude Sickness, please descend to lower elevation as soon as possible.
