Cache is a cammo'd ammo can.

I've wanted to place a cache here for some time. On a clear day the view of the valley is fantastic. There is usually a nice breeze that comes up the hill and a nice open area to relax at after the hike up here.

In the spring time, when the local foliage is in bloom, you will be coming through a sea of lavender colored flowers. I believe that these plants are purple sage. The summer time is when you really can smell them. It always reminders me of breakfast! Be sure to bring your camera when comming up here. If the flowers aren't in bloom there is still great views of the valley to take pictures of!

Remember to bring plenty of water, especially when coming up here in the summer months. Also watch for the local critters before reaching into any area. A hiking stick is always useful for both the hike and the retrieval of caches around here.

The sage was still in bloom and very fragrant. The dog smelled like sage for two days. TFTC

Sadly, the views weren't all that great today. An ugly haze was hanging over a good part of the Valley at the time. Even so, this is a nice spot, with a grand view of Castle Peak.
