This cache is near the middle of the Topanga Ridge Trail, two thirds of a mile from the bottom.

The Topanga Ridge Trail is a beautiful but rocky and often steep ridgeline trail that climbs through the amazing sandstone formations just east of Stunt Road in Calabasas. Although not very long, only strong hikers should attempt this trail!

To get to the trail, park on Stunt Road in Calabasas where Calabasas Peak Motorway meets it (N34° 5.712', W118° 38.957'). Hike up Calabasas Peak Motorway 0.6 miles to Red Rock Road. The trail heads uphill to the south-east from here. Or you can park at Red Rock Park (fee area) at the end of the pavement on Red Rock Road, roughly N34° 6.311', W118° 38.243', and hike the 1.1 miles to Calabasas Peak Mtwy. Or, from the top, park at the overlook at the intersection of Stunt Road and Saddle Peak Road, N34° 4.88', W118° 38.711', then hike north-east on the Topanga Ridge Motorway.

Waypoints for these parking spots are listed in "Bite the Bullet" (GC1M0JA) (visit link)

The cache is a camo'd bison tube to the east of the trail.

October 11 by J-Man (125 found) I didn't even see where it would have been... But I did see my first snake of the year at the coords... A beautiful California Whipsnake. Bummer about the cache, tho, as I don't know that I'll make it back to this location. Too rough on my knees. [view this log]

September 7 by aardvark aarchitect (321 found) Looked high and low in little and big holes but saw nothing. If it was higher up out of reach, I wasn't going to get it anyway. :( [This entry was edited by aardvark aarchitect on Tuesday, September 08, 2009 at 8:10:47 AM.] [view this log]

June 19 by RCKen (727 found) LAED and I did the Topanga Ridge Trail from the bottom up. A few spots on the first 2/3s of the trail required mountain goat mode but going slow and steady we made. There are some fantastic 360° views on the ridge line and some nice breezes in some spots. Ed quickly located and extracted this one from its home. Cache is in good condition at this time [view this log]
