Only five "the 1st class trig points" in whole Taipei Area (Taipei City and Taipei County), they are:

1) Mt. CiShin: H1120m (GCR4E5)
2) Mt. ShiZaiTou: H857m (GCR9ZA)
3) Mt. CanGuangLiao: H739m
4) Mt. DaDong: H405m (GCRNYN, This cache)
5) Mt. TuKu: H389m (GCRTY5)

I think it's the easiest trig point of the five. You can view to Taipei basin and TaoYuan on this summit.

OMG, I forgot motogrrl in my motorbike.

This is our 2nd try of the cache. The first time, my younger son and I came in the dark. We need a flashlight to go downhill. This time, whole family were here and we were here in daylight. We are determined on finding the cache.

After taking 30 minutes hiking, we went up to the mountain. Surprisedly, we found there are cars parking on the top. I don't remember there are roads leading here. But now, there are blacktop road directly leaded here. And also there is a wood house, too.

After taking a picture on the mountain top, my two sons took my GPSr, urged to the cache. However, this cache is not an easy one. My elder son got off the road and ran into wood and weed without my pushing. Hr Hr, he really got some spirit in geocaching now. I followed my son, but we could not find anything. Fortune to us, we got eight eyes for search. By expanding the search range, yes, we found the cache.

The cache is surprisedly in good shape, very clean and neat. I finally found a good cache for motogrrl Geocoin. "My God!", I left motogrrl in my motorbike. No, No, No! I could not go downhill to take her. So, I could only take and leave no thing. Motorgrrl, let's go again.

Off trail? No way.

By the time we arrive climbing trail, it's already very dark, no much light. My son and I used LED flashlights in order to walk on trail. The GPS device leaded us to a trail which may be the most shortest way, but I know, it's not a right trial for climbing. The trail is difficult for walking (don't even mention of biking) and scary in the dark and windy woods. I was also a bit surprised by my son. He is only 10 year-old, and he didn't complain one word at all about the darkness.

When we approach to the cache, oh my god, I found it's not beside trail, but in a bunch of woods and weeds. Should we off trail, in such darkness? OK, this is it. We should turn around, follow our coming track, and go home.

It's my third time to visit here.
First time I went there with Soya,but I didn't find it,so I didn't log.
The second time , I was still fail.Because I walked too far to find the cache.
This time I searched in a large area,finally found it!
The ziplock bag has a small hole (less than 1cm),so the bag is wet inside.But box is dry inside.

At first, I followed the GPS to get on trail(the shortest way), but soon find out there is no way to get in. So I tried another way, you can get there by bike or motorcycle or car. But the condition of the road is not very good, some of them are full of gravels!

in: Yellow stone national park arm chain
out: RATP toy

the view is really great!
