Walked all the way up here from Tanner reserve. nice Autumn leaves in the park but no cache to be found. Checked past logs. Oh - lots of DNF's. Rechecked garmin, hint and location all seemed to match. Left a temporary logsheet in plastic bag. Needs more permanent container if anyone is going here.

no luck here after a search of where gz took me

FTF!! Made harder walk of it than lol it should have been ha-ha but got there in the end. Digger Dave has been busy digging himself a hole. Neat cache and a beautiful day to go searching. Tftc

We pulled up and parked 30 m from the cache just 10 minutes after the cache was published but we noticed another caching vehicle parked already a little further up the road so we decided to head up the peak to chase another FTF and head back to this one later on. So we came back to find this little guy...quick find. We walked right past him yesterday. Kids love this spot.
