Geocache Description:

This cache is in the Knickerbocker Area of the Auburn State Recreation Area just off the Olmstead loop trail on the Dam Overlook Trail.

This Cache is one of three I have placed on the same day along the Olmstead Loop.
The trail can be busy during the weekend and is sometimes closed for special events.
Such as bike races and horse events.
The trail continues on past the cache but just dead ends down the hill a ways without a better view than you get near the cache site. It is worth while to go past the cache into the meadow for an improved view of Folsom lake and Mt Diablo but not much further. Also the views are better on the dirt trail than the paved road.
The loop is 9 miles long mostly fairly level but it has its ups and downs.

The cache is a 1.7 pt (7.5"x5'x2.5") Rubbermaid container

Trailhead and parking are behind the fire station in Cool, in the vicinity of N 38° 53.339, W 121° 01.041.

The Auburn State Recreation Canyon Keepers (ASRACK) have an online Trail Guide page which includes a guide for the Olmstead Loop.

Please log your find or no find online so I will know how the cache is doing.
If you feel my coordinates are off please post your coordinates with your log.
So I can make adjustments if necessary.

No more boring log entries.
Hey folks how about leaving a log entry that tells me something about finding this geocache or about your day of geocaching? We are all guilty of the old cut and paste but how about something more than "Good cache TNLNSL TFTC" on 10+ caches in one day? We cache owners like to hear about your experiences. It gives us a feeling of being there when we can't be, how the cache is doing, and it lets us get to know you in a virtual kind of way. That doesn't mean it has to be long just not boring.
Remember the cache owners and anyone with a watch on the cache will read your log, how about making it interesting.
We Thank You.
