Amazing! No one had been up there for a whole year so I wasn’t even sure it would be there. I would reccomend not going up there in winter or spring because we went in early summer and there was still quite a lot of snow. TFTC

Visiting from Florida. Sightseeing and caching with my dear friend, AustenKnight. This was a great stop. First we took a nice walk to the cache. Found it in good condition and nicely placed. Then as we got ready to leave someone told us there was a moose across the street. How thrilling to see this beautiful creature. TFTF.

There are TWO trails taking off from the parking area. Be sure to take the one at the UPPER end of the parking area where it is vehicle accessible even though the road is CLOSED. You have to go on the CLOSED road which may be trespassing, and when you get across from the cache you do have to bushwhack about 50'. SL
