Geocache Description:


On a lovely summers day our family joined 13 other cachers on the Skyline-to-the-sea trail. We kept up with them for the first half mile. After that, it was all over, we never saw them again. Of course, we never intended to go the whole way, so that's Ok.*

We made it as far as the Timms Creek trail, then turned around and hiked back. Part of what makes this loop "strenuous" (as the signs say) is that aside from the very first climb to the ridge, much of the initial portion is downhill - meaning that the long hike back to park headquarters is up a steady grade.

On our way back up the grade we saw this pleasant place. BuckyD turned to me and uttered the balm which is the title of the cache. We spent quite awhile recharging for the final climb back up to the ridgeline.

You might be making the hike as a loop, or you may be headed for the sea. Either way, when you come even with this cache site, read the cache title and see if you don't answer "Yes!"
