Nothing special, just another Backbone Trail cache in Topanga State Park...

While on a maintenance trip to our "Lone Oak" (GCYBP4) cache we realized a fairly long stretch of this famous trail was cache-less. Not anymore.

You're looking for a camo'd Altoids tin about ten feet off the trail. It contains a few small trinkets and a log sheet. Please bring your own pen.

September 10 by dbir (1027 found) After poking around awhile, I finally found it. TFTC. [view this log]

August 23 by paleolith (433 found) I'm on a roll! Well, I didn't actually find Turn Right for the Rustic Canyon, but the owner of that cache gave me permission to install a replacement, which I did. So, I looked in one cavity I hadn't totally explored (after poking a stick in and stirring), no dice. Looked another place I thought I'd checked out thoroughly last time, and there it was! The pencil point was down to zilch and I had nothing to sharpen it with, so I left a mini-pen. I got a late, noonish start today, so I made this my turnaround point. A cool sea breeze was blowing most of the afternoon, and if I'd started early, I could have made it up to the hub, possibly finding all the caches in Topanga that I need for Spinal Tap. Sic transit gloria. On the way down, I took the side trail to PEACE---------OUT. Edward [view this log]

July 26 by paleolith (433 found) Didn't get enough frustration at Turn Right for the Rustic Canyon, so I came up here for some more. The sun was high and very bright, making it very difficult to see into crevices. I didn't fully explore one due to the harsh light, and maybe that's where it was. Saw the geotrail from 30' away. You may need to consider moving this a short way because the geotrail has become so prominent. The slide here is not too far back in history, and the soil and rock are still really loose here and get moved easily, and the result remains visible. It's a surprisingly delicate spot. Finally resolved my frustration with a Backbone Pear. Edward [view this log]

June 6 by location_scouts (123 found) We both poked around with a stick before putting our digits out for this cache. 18th cache of 22 on the day towards Spinal Tap. Beautiful BBT! [view this log]

May 26 by GWRoss (1939 found) This is one of those caches for which the warning "look before you reach" is particularly appropriate. I finally found it in one of the first places I looked. Thanks for the cache! [view this log]
