WATCH OUT FOR ANTS
This cache is on La Posta Road. An easy way to get to LaPosta is to take the exit from Highway 550 that goes to Home Depot. Instead of turning right into the Home Depot parking lot, go straight, over the bridge, then turn right onto La Posta road. The cache is a steep scramble uphill but is not far.

Found! I had come by yesterday looking for this, and got about halfway up before I realized I would need to turn around because I wasn’t wearing the right shoes. That terrain rating is no joke! It’s a nice little spot once you get up there, but it is pretty tricky. Be very careful where you step, the rocks are coming loose in a lot of places. I slipped on my way down, and managed to knock a small boulder all the way down to the bottom. Such a great spot though, really enjoyed this! TFTC!
