Not on Rainbow Falls property though overlooks from a popular (by locals) high spot! Can enter this popular ATV/Dirtbike/horse riding area from a few different Forest Roads. FR 332C will bring you to an unmarked trail. On this trail, either ATV's are needed or will be a serious 15+ minute hike. Trail is too narrow for Jeeps. Trail does split near the top & both dead end into small turn abouts. Pick the one that bears to the right. Cache is within a short distance from here - back away from the fence. Advised not to cross the fence and to keep an eye on small children.
This is an area that got hit hard by the Haymen Fire. Dead fallen trees everywhere, along with scrub brush etc.

This one was our last cache of the day. En route to the cache we scared a deer that had been resting close to the cache. We probably got just as spooked as she did! Left a couple of small things for the next cacher. Tftc.

Replaced this one so it is good to go. Easy hike once you get to the top of the hill. Stamped the new log and were off to the next one. [8d][8d] SL TFTC

Looked and looked while suffering yucca and stining nettle stabs -- but no luck. I will try again and bring new eyes. TFTH!
