Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

This cache is located in Redwood Regional Park, not far off a main trail leading from the Skyline Gate Staging Area.

An ammo box is stashed "in the rocks" a short scramble from the trail.

The main trail is nice, pretty well-traveled, off-leash-okay for dogs, with some near-trail poison oak. The actual cache is located off the trail a bit, and although there is no poison oak in the immediate vicinity, there are a few stinging nettles!

Please note that although there is some fifth-class rockclimbing in the area, finding this cache does NOT require roped rockclimbing. You will, however, need to use hands to scramble up, and the path to the cache occasionally becomes quite overgrown.

Did I mention the stinging nettles? :)

Visiting from San Diego and out for a Christmas hike and went after this one. First it took us a while to find the trail head, don't try going down to it from above. What a great park and really nice trails. We located the cache to about 47 ft and then the 3-Star Terrain started. Maybe it should be 4-Star Terrain when the ground is wet, (it was).We finally made it up there and found the cache, left a TWC BumbleBee key ring and signed the log........then tried to get down without sliding. Great cache, glad we did it. TFTC Great Park. Karen&Mike and Donna(Utah) got this one.
