#GearDrop hunt clues

  • 1)Let's get out of the city, and hit some trails. Pack up some shoes that you don't mind getting a little dirty. You could take the 520 to the east side, but I90 will get you closer to where you need to be.
  • 2)Cougars and tigers and rattlesnakes, oh my! But, we're not headed to the zoo.
  • 3)The medallion is hidden somewhere within the 35 miles of trails in this 3,100-acre park, which used to be home to mines and missile bases.
  • 4)Time to hit the trails! Not Red Town, but Sky Country to start. Park there, and strap on your trail shoes.
  • 5)Horses and Nike's? You're on the right track.
  • 6)You're starting elevation is 1188 feet, and you'll need to hike lower, just like water over some falls.
  • 7)Think of the stuff that comes out of mines: Diamonds and Gold sure, but coal is what this creek is named after.
  • 8)Hear the flowing water yet? Soon you'll cross the footbridge and find the medallion tucked right underneath the other side! Take a selfie with your prize right by Coal Creek Falls.
