Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Intended name is: Old Ridge Route - Backroad, Benchmark, and Bodies of Water (but is too long). Micro cache, log only, bring your own writing utensil.
As you enjoy your trip along this historic road, now a backroad, you can stop at this turnout to pick up a cache and a benchmark while enjoying the expansive views of the Quail Lake Valley below, including a peek at Quail Lake and the California Aqueduct. The folded hills before you likely indicate a seismically active area.

There is also another benchmark high up on the hillside across the road. Look for a stub of concrete up on the bank. We did not venture up to that one as it looked too difficult to reach.

We drove up to the Lancaster area to start the New Year right with a full day of caching. Very rewarding and stress-free, and the weather and scenery were gorgeous. Thanks for the cache!

Donvsop, Jellis and I did some pre-holiday caching for few days down in the fertile Antelope Valley. Much thanks to all the local cachers for the over 400 caches we found along the way.
