Cache
Cache is a ammo can full of things you might use or need while
enjoying the Blue Mountains.
Please try to stay with the theme when trading.
Anything that has to do with hiking, camping, fishing, or hunting
will do.
Some of the original trade items are:
Flashlight
Emergency Blanket
Mini Compass/whistle combo
Compass
Hooded Poncho
Hand warmer
Deck of Cards and Checkers game for evening campfire
entertainment.
Duct Tape
and a few other misc. outdoor goodies
Please stay on the trail until you reach the switchback at this
waypoint: N 46° 08.600 W 117° 47.998
This is where the trail reaches the top of the ridge and is the
easiest route to the cache. Cache is aprox. 180 feet North of the
switchback.
1.15 miles @ 600
feet elevation rise. Trail is 12-18" wide with a few
switchbacks.
If you have conquered
Tucannon 7 &
The Goblet of Fire, you should have no
problem with this one.
It's the Blue
Mountains, what more do I need to say..
Plenty of parking
at this location near the trailhead: N 46°08.158 W 117°48.523
Your dog will love
it!
Pulled two of the
little hitchhikers off me after I made the hide. use repellent!
Found a
friendly garter sunning himself on the
trail near the first switchback. Watch for buzztails, you never
know....
There is a fire
ring near the trailhead. Check the Umatilla National
Forest homepage for latest campfire conditions.
There is also a signboard at the end of S. 4th in Dayton with
latest fire conditions posted.
