We really wanted to put this on the top of Sheep Nose but we wanted the series to be available year round and accessable to any fit person and the route to the summit is 'pretty sketchy'. So we also placed Sheep Nose Bonus Cache on the summit of Sheep Nose.
To get to this cache we parked at the provided coordinates and skirted the rocks to the west until we were directly west of the Sheep Nose saddle and then headed up to the saddle and north to the cache. There's not much of a trail in the valley and it's scampering around boulders the rest of the way up the fairly steep hill. No climbing or bouldering required if you choose a good path. It's less than a mile from the parking spot to the cache.
Container is a large micro which may have room for small trackables.
Special thanks to Kimberly for the container and to muggles paul and isaiah for help on scouting trips.
The other Sheep Series caches are Here.
Congrats to hartsdale for being FTF.
