This cache is near the Oak Grove campground on the way up to Ski Apache ski area. About 5 miles off 48. This is a nice little campground just outside of Ruidoso, NM. The Oak Grove campground is a favorite by many campers & picnickers.
Campground may be closed during off-season. Call to verify.

This letterbox is only a short walk from the entrance. Very easy to park, and a quick uphill walk and you’re there.

After entering the campground, park at the first picnic site on the west (left) side of the road. It is just south of a public restroom. After parking your vehicle, walk back up the road (south) until you find the brown pedestrian/crossing sign. Count off ten more steps up the road (south) and discover this letterbox in the heart of the oaks!

Kindly conceal the letterbox for the next explorer after documenting your find :)

Hike length: 0.1 miles
