This cache is at a location offers you some panoramic views of the area. Minor rock scrambling will be needed to retrieve the cache. You will be searching for a 35mm film canister that has been camoed. Be sure to bring your own writing utensil to sign the log book.

Whew, this was a hot day! I tried for this one last year, but was stymied trying to cross the creek during spring runoff. Easy peasy today. Thanks!

Up here with GotYour6, BugRanger, Path Pacer, and Suzy (PP's geo-dog), aiming at this string of caches. It turned out to be hotter than we wanted, but we found this one without much trouble and BR avenged a long-ago DNF. TFTC!

We found it. It is along the trail of a wonderful hike. The beauty and area are certainly the cache! Film case is clear and not visible without some work...

Started my hike at 11:30 to grab the 8 caches in the area with my pup. Not much left of the bridge after the flood just over a year ago, just a couple of 2x10's now. At the end of the day I came away with 7 fines after 7.4 miles. Thanks for this great hide.

I really like this trail, so i have been finding excuses to keep coming back. This morning I found the final two caches, but i'll think of another reason to return. THANKS!
