Beautiful hike! We saw lots of deer, 4 bucks in all. We hiked fast to make it out before dark so we were pretty tired by the time we got back to the jeep. Saw lots of bear droppings. This is definitely one of our favorites! Thanks for the cache!

Probably made this harder than it needed to be, going up and over the top. Totally worth it, though, enjoyed the climb, the hike, and the views. Saw a couple mule deer and lots of elk sign (and elk hunter sign). Wind was very cold on top of the peak, not bad in the trees and down around the cache. Had to wedge the cache lid between two rocks to loosen it. Thanks for a fun little adventure. Hope I can get up here skiing some time. TFTC

Bueno! A very memorable find. Been eyeballing and scouting this one for years. After looking for a way to hike into the pigs nose cache in futility, I just made up my mind to get this one. Well, I took a scenic route UP. Not the preferred one I am quite sure. Did some rock hopping. Nice hike overall. Jumped a few elk adjacent to the cache. I'm sure they were not expecting a visitor from that direction.
Cache basically in good condition but overloaded with "stuff". Sure happy to have this one DONE.
Gracias!

We had to dig down 4ft to get to bit. However our twenty minutes of perseverance paid off.

Was going to come in from the campground, but I couldn't find a trail. Parked elsewhere and hiked up logging roads the whole way. SL. Quite a mountain.

Checking up on this cache. It was wet inside so I dried everything out. The next time I come up here I will add an extra logbook and maybe some other items. I don,t know why it was wet inside. You might wand to bring along some channel lok pliers because the lid came be hard to open.
