Don't let this one intimidate you. Take the long trail to Cactus cliff and access the final cache from above. Watch out for falling rocks and climbers. Watch your step amongst the abundant cacti and loose rock. May want to leave the little ones on the trail. Both way points are green Rx pill containers where trees and rocks come together. The cache is a clear container with a blue lid. Plenty of tradeable items inside. Enjoy the view of Shelf Road and beyond.

Unfortunately I was not able to come up with stage one. It was in a pretty steep area just off the Banks Rd. I checked all the trees and rocks I could within 50’ or so.

Out this way looking for a few lonely caches like this one.

Loved the final location!

Thanks for a fun multi cache with some good old exercise to go with it.

Couldn't locate Stage 1 today. Our first time exploring this area. Had to walk from the campground since the gate was closed. Tons of climbers out today and they all must have brought 2 vehicles each. Barely squeezed in a parking spot. Even with the DNF it was still a very neat area to explore.

Did a cache rescue on this cache since it hasn't been found since 10-03-2009. Container is in great shape. Being hidden under those huge rocks really protected it. The container is plastic but it doesn't have a hole or scratch in it!! Up on the Shelf road to get the new NEEDLES cache up the road. This one gets a favorite point for surving this long. Kind of a tough climb with all the loose rocks, but the coordinates were right on! SL TFTC TNLN

We didn't understand the clue, so we hiked up from the nearby parking area. I used my long-forgotten scrambling non-skills and got up to the cache. Took the Canada Geocoin sand will move it along.
