The start of this 3 stage multi is 1/2 of a mile off of Hwy. 13 on the JQS Trail(C.R.242); this trip will take more than an hour. The distance between stage 1 and stage 3 can be less than 4 miles depending on your choice of trails. A 4WD is recommended but can be had with a car if the road is dry and you're up for a hike. If you feel lucky and have a 4x4 you may find a jeep trail that runs close to the final cache but this will increase the distance between stage 1 and 3.
The coordinates to the 2nd stage are located on the kiosk which is located at the posted coordinates.

The second stage is up a wash, hidden in a tree and holds the coordinates to the final stage.

The final cache is an unusual container but has quite a bit of room for trading items.

The hike to the final will be uphill and downhill whether you approach from the top or bottom; expect a climb either way.

All 3 are camoed.
