Geocache Description:


Seriously, arachnophobes should not seek this cache . . . and, forgive me, it is a micro, a container I found in a cache in MTRP. The distance to the cache is less than a mile. Please bring a pen.

After hiking to the nearby Carveacre Wind Caves cache with duganrm, I walked over to this large area of slickrock and marveled at the views of Cuyamaca Peak and Gaskill Peak and even Point Loma in the distance.

I placed this cache to bring cachers to this location to see the fantastic views in all directions. There are more pictures of the area here.

Access to the cache is from Carveacre Road which winds south from Japatul Valley Road southeast of Alpine. Take Gaskill Peak Road to Lost Trail to the parking turnout at N 32° 45.263 W 116° 42.434.

From there, the trail can be difficult to follow, however if you walk towards N 32° 45.276 W 116° 42.514 to the southwest, over all the chipped brush, you will find a newly-created, odd, and sometimes-funny dirt track that eventually leads you to the well-established trail. The main trail continues near N 32° 45.209 W 116° 42.511.
