Geocache Description:

Terrain: semi-developed trail for 80%, rugged remainder.
Landscape: Neat forest, streams, and waterfall.
Located in Commons Ford Park, the least known of the City of Austin Park System. Note: Park is open from noon to 6PM but is closed on Mondays. Closing means they lock the gate, so you must plan accordingly!

From the park entrance, drive about 1/2 mile to a visible trailhead on left. There are no signs but it is near a brown post with a wind gauge and antenna. Trail goes through an amazing cedar forest then crosses a stream.

The cache is at the base of a bush-like tree. From the cache location you can hear a hidden waterfall (most of the year.) After you've found the cache, follow the sound to see a pristine mini-waterfall!

Be sure to watch the time if you arrive late, they lock the entrance at 6PM.
