Geocache Description:

A nice hike with a great view of the valley. Some elevation gain, but suitable for the whole family.

The trailhead can be found by travelling 1.2 km North on Westside Road from the tee intersection with highway 93/95. This intersection is near Dutch Creek, about a few km's south of Fairmont Hot Springs. Turn left (West) off Westside Road, and park in the trail head parking lot. The hike is less than 2 km and the elevation gain is about 95 meters.

Follow the trail until you ascend to take in the great view. The trail now forms a loop at the end, going further West beyond the marked trail puts you in private property. The cache has been relocated such that no trespassing is required. Some have tried to go straight-line from the parking lot to the cache, but that cannot be done. You need to follow the hiking trail as marked and then you can locate the cache by using the GPS once you are near the hoodoos edge.

The cache is in a typical spot and should be easy to pinpoint since it is in an open area and GPS coverage is excellent. It's a clear plastic container. Enjoy!
