Geocache Description:

This cache should be fairly easy to locate. It is approximately 200 yards North of an old quarry carved into the side of a mountain.

There is no fast way to the caves thru the woods so enjoy the hike. Use care in the area around the caves there are a lot of loose rocks. The view from the top of the mountain is nice. The cache is in an ammo can. PLEASE LOG YOUR VISIT IN THE BOOK WITH THE CACHE AND BE SURE TO TELL US WHERE YOUR FROM (CITY AND STATE).

Suggested parking is north of the cave on the Taylorsville Aragon Road right of way at the Railroad crossing. It is a one mile walk south along the RR right of way.

Do not approach this cache from Portland Road south of the cave. The folks that live along Portland Road don't want cars parking along the road. They aggressively discourage anybody from leaving their car unattended in the neighborhood.

Caution!
During hunting season - Fall and Winter
Hunters in the area around the caves. They have the same permission to be there as geocachers. But they are not as eager to share the woods with others.
If you plan to visit this cache during the fall and winter
be advised to wear a lot of orange
and do not go alone anytime of the year. There has been reports of unfriendly people in the area of the cave.
If you feel uncomfortable in this type of environment do not hunt this geocache. Thanks for understanding this Caution!!
