My guess is more likely Lasivian was tired from the summer hike up
Camelback. He probably hid it on 8/3 and typed 6/3 by mistake, just like
he typed N34 instead of N33. Correcting the latitude would put it about
1500 feet from Place Tup Top. (I've never been up there. Is there that
much room on the summit?).

The newest cache placed anywhere (as of about 30 seconds ago) had a
waypoint of 7A6D, so that would put this one as being posted very
recently, not last year. When they get up to 8000, they'll be halfway
through all the currently available waypoint IDs.

Do you want to drop him an email? I'm sure he'll fix it as soon as he's
made aware of it.
