It's a camo'd match container hanging in a lone tree just off of the parking lot. Access to the trails will be obvious.

My most enjoyable caching day of 2005 was spent hiking and finding all 22 caches in f0t0m0m's Tujunga Wash series. Sadly time and the elements have taken their toll and after almost 4 years only 7 caches remained active. To encourage more cachers to visit this area, my friends capdude, capsbug, Don_J, robbdogg, BWidget, EMC of Northridge CA and I took a Saturday morning hike and re-populated the area with new caches. Today, 10/11/08, the "wash" was completely dry and hiking from cache to cache over the mostly flat but uneven terrain was easy. We practiced bush/cactus avoidance and no real bushwhacking was needed. Breaks in the terrain, boulders, stand-alone trees and other interesting features offered a multitude of cache hiding places. Have fun!!

THE WASH ISN'T ALWAYS DRY. During the year there may be easily crossable streams or flash floods and a raging torrent hundreds of feet wide. Use common sense.

RIP, per the clue specifics. I was on a walk from the Dam trailhead. Only had to cross one raging stream so far. Cheers.

I'm not sure hanging is how I'd describe it, but it is there. TFTC
