A trail in the Hamakua Forest Reserve
This is the second in the Zorro series.

This trail is very close to the house and Zorro the Wonderdog and I hike this several times a month and never tire of it. Lots of life and plants.

There is some hunting in the area so if you have a black dog I suggest a bright bandana. At times hunters leave a carcass at the beginning of the trail so I usually begin and end with Zorro on a leash, but let him loose about 50 meters in.

The parking is on a dirt road but accessable by any vehicle.

GPS reception is difficult but you will know when to turn it on and start looking for the cache, it's at the end of the trail. Once you find the cache continue on about 10 meters and you will see a second less obvious trail. This loops around and joins the main trail and back to the car. Zorro and I do like our loops.

This is a fun hike and there is always a chance you will see Zorro and me hiking it.

Original contents:
Marbles

On our way up the hill to the cache we enjoyed watching the ocean white caps below. When we arrived at GZ, the cows were keeping an eye on us. TFTC

FTF 16:45 on a cool, foggy day. Nice for hiking though, but I didn't have to go too far. Found an alternate park spot that was only a hundred yards or so from the cache. Try N 20° 02.828 W 155° 28.398. The listed parking place seemed like it might need 4WD? T: FTF prize (that will warm me up nicely) and the Dog Scarf TB (to show at the M&G next week) and L: Goju Ryu RB; SL. Mahalo nui loa for this nice new cache. On to the GULCH!
