Geocache Description:

A "backdoor" to the Sierra Azul

I was out scouting cache locations an was surprised to find a trailhead for the Sierra Azul OSP in this area.

This spot was not on any of my maps, but you can get to it off Hicks Rd. by turning on Reynolds Rd.
There is space for a couple of cars at the trailhead.
Old topographic maps show this trail system goes all the way to El Sombroso. I didn't get that far, anyone care to try?

The cache is a liter nalgene bottle in an obvious hiding spot.
