Warning

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

Cache is located overlooking Upper Ho'opi'i Falls which is along the Kapaa Stream near Kapaa on the East side of Kauai
To reach the trailhead from Hwy 56 drive about 0.6 miles north of Kapaa, turn west on Kawaihau Road. Drive 3.0 miles to Kapahi Rd. Turn right and drive 0.2 miles to the trailhead on the left. There is parking along the left side of the road for about 4 cars. Trail begins at a yellow gate. The trail to the falls is usually very muddy and slippery in places so be careful of your footing. When you reach a bend in the river, you can either take the trail up hill and around the water or take a small trail along side the river, but you may get your feet wet. When you reach Uper Ho'opi'i Falls you can continue down the trail to Lower Ho'opi'i Falls about 0.5 miles farther.

Please be careful as there is a large drop off about 20 feet from the cache location. Container is completely concealed behind some small rocks. Please rehid so its completely out of sight. Enjoy!

Congratulations to addisonbr for ftf!!

Not a bad hike but we were getting eaten alive by the mosquitoes and didn't spend enough time searching
