A video segment showing part of the trail toward this cache was featured in Icenrye's Videozine #10.

"Are you hardcore, or are you a $@&%ing creampuff!?" Those words were screamed at me constantly in Marine Corps Boot Camp while we recruits were being pushed and prodded at a full-on run under 70lb packs up hills much steeper and taller than this one. So ask yourself this question while you leisurely stroll up the road toward this cache. Heck, run it if you want, and beat the 45-minute out-and-back trip I made to place this cache.

This ammo can cache is in a hollow tree at (or near enough to throw a rock at) the exact center of the 97355 ZIP code, at least as far as geocaching.com is concerned. I finally have the definitive word on Plagman (also known as Horse) Butte: the out-of-state landowner of this property put up the "No Trespassing" sign at the gate strictly to keep motorized vehicles out. Mountain bikers and hikers are fully welcome to do their thing here in a peaceful and safe manner. Bring a CITO bag for what little trash you may find in this area (I saw none today), and we'll be good to go here for years to come. Don't block the gate. Be ready for an immediate and substantial (600' +/-) elevation gain. The last few hundred feet are kinda sketchy, and you will encounter blackberries and maybe some poison oak, so a hiking staff or machete (Pablo Mac prefers an Ontario Knife 20") may be useful. Hydrate or wish you had (or worse). Plan at least an hour to & from your cachemobile. Enjoy your little stroll in the woods, CREAMPUFF!
