This cache is part way up the Topanga Ridge Trail, 0.4 miles 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)

You are looking for an evil small micro container.

2009-05-03 Update: Container has been replaced with a small camo'd plastic food container. Bring a pen to sign the log.

Nicely named but still a bit of a challenge, if only just to get there. TFTC

Came all the way up just to wipe off the previous DNF. Looks like the cache was missing last time I was here. Found the replacement today. Thanks for the hide.

Looking forward to the roadway, the cool (not) roadway. A breeze would have been nice. Oh well. Cheers.

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. No Evil lurking around today just a nice cache. Cache is in good condition at this time.
