Geocache Description:

At the end of Peg Leg Mine road(north), off of a trail up a hill near some rocks.

Bushwacking is required (or at least it was for us) maybe you can find a better way to get there. The bushwacking is a lot of dry dead vegitation. The first part of the trail is really nice and even, then before the dip in the road with all the rocks, there is a trail off to the left. Go up that little trail and from there you're on your own. Please be careful of the yucca's(which we have renamed devil horns, because they hurt and make you bleed.) Trust us they look innocent but they can really poke you. LONG PANTS and GOOD SHOES are a requirement. You might want to bring water...we were sweaty.(But sometimes people tend to think caches are easier than we do, so you'll have to be your own judge)
Park at the end of Peg Leg Mine road (the north one) near a metal gate. Trail starts from there. If you want to take the time there is a 'mine' out there somewhere, but we are all long time Jamul residents and have had no luck finding it...will keep looking though.
The cache is a three quart plastic contanier that is camoed...orginal contents...good stuff!!
