A roadside cache, do not cross the fence line. It might be a good idea to have your geo-tweezers handy. I'm raising the difficulty to 1.5, too many logs indicating some difficulty. To reiterate, no need to cross the fence.

Leafy Spurge in full bloom

Leafy Spurge is a perennial, not native to the USA. It has been in this area since the 1960s and is toxic to most livestock. It is rapidly taking over in many of our pasture lands and is an irritant to humans, so don't get the milky sap on you. It is possibly the most difficult weed to control in the area.

While you're here, stop a moment and look to the East. It's plain to see why this area was so attractive to the early settlers.

Log only. Please replace the cache exactly as you found it and happy caching!

Not recommended for wheelchairs (H15531)

Look for a wire and rhino tube. Please do let me know if the cache is missing, I suspect someone may have taken it in the past. -Doug

We almost skipped this as there was so much traffic, but it let up a bit and were able to jump out and make the find. Tftc.

Hi all,

Indeed the cache log was missing. It has been refreshed and is ready to go. Be sure to take a look to the east and enjoy the view. There is a possibility this will be turned into a gravel pit soon.
