Significant hike  May require wading  Motorcycles  Quads 

Are you ready for some adventure? Well this is not the hardest cache I have placed but we were camping near by and there were no cache's in the area so I placed a couple. Over 2000 feet of elevation gain in just over 2 miles. It starts with a rather deep water crossing and then a steep overgrown trail that only got the best of me on my motorcycle once. Steep, baby head rocks and bushes in the face = me in a bush upside down off the trail. 

If you take a motorized vehicle please stop when you get to the sign that says End of route and hike your sorry butt the last .3 miles. I did it in my mc boots you can do it too. 

The top has a summit log that has been frequented by several guided hunters. The cache is a short distance away. 

Don't forget to check out the mine on your way down, way cool.

It looks like the motorized trail has been closed off about 1.6 miles from the cache - probably when the opened the CT spur?? No matter, had a nice walk on a pretty day. Thanks for the hide.
