Park at a large pullout on Highway S2 between the 24 and 25 mile
markers. Cross the highway and head South a few dozen feet to the
California Riding and Hiking Trail. Take the trail West. At N 33°
01.051, W 116° 25.925 go left/uphill. The junction of the road and
the trail is nearly impossible to see. Refer to the hint if you get
stuck here. The road is very faint until it starts cutting into the
right side of the hill (heading Southwest). There is a prominent
rock knob to the left at the top of the hill. The road goes
downhill for awhile before getting steep again.
At the top of the second saddle you can see the Box Canyon
interpretive panel/parking area below you when you face almost due
West.
At N 33° 00.514, W 116° 26.095 you are at the last of the uphill
climbing. Follow the road downhill.
The cache is at about 3100 feet.
The container is a white metal tin 8" in diameter and 3" deep.
It contains:
- Memobook, Pen and Pencil
- www.wheresgeorge.com Dollar Bill
- 4 AA Batteries
- Cinnamon Altoids
- Ballons
- Junior Slinky
- Music CD
- Mexican Coins
- Rocks and Shell
- Playdoh
There is a mine shaft about 500' beyond the cache, at the end of
the road. You might want to bring a flashlight to look inside of
it, but do not go inside of it. The road is very steep between the
cache and the shaft.
