Geocache Description:

A film container near a little used gate into the northeast section of El Sereno OSP. http://www.openspace.org/preserves/pr_el_sereno.asp
You'll need to bring along a writing utensil.
I'm pretty sure this gate gets little use because parking is almost nil.

I've been biking this trail for years. It's only about a mile and a half long but it's really peaceful and the views on a clear day are very panoramic. I've never seen anyone else besides who I was with on this trail.

Now, getting there and parking.
I would like to quote Nazgul from his description for his ES02 Secret Trailhead cache which is close and has the same parking situation pretty much:
"Overlook road is a very narrow street, not much wider than a lane in places. So please drive/ride/hike carefully and watch for other vehicles and bicyclists".
There is absolutely no parking anywhere near the trailhead.
I saw room for one car to pull over about 300 ft before getting to the gate on the inside of the road. Otherwise the only place that I can say is legal is at a pullout almost a mile away at the intersection of Overlook and Sheldon road. (N37 13.490 W122 00.124)
PLEASE respect the nearby neighbors. Park legally!
Also, PLEASE obey the preserves opening and closing time.
Happy Trails!
