Geocache Description:

Sit for a moment at this spot, reflect upon your trip, take in the vibrant life around you at a symbol of death, breath deep the humus scent, and know that you are alive.

The magic of La Luz Canyon's existentialism will be palatable if you drive from the basin to this location, then continue your journey to up to SR 244.

Take in the sights, spanning from red rock to ancient evergreens. This journey will not disappoint you, and I hope you will find La Luz existential.

I have several caches planned to place along this phenomenal canyon. However the regular sized caches are not quite out of production. As we explored the canyon (again), we paused near this cache and investigated the wildflowers brought to bloom by this year's plentiful monsoon rains. I picked up an Elk trail and meandered to this cache's location, and was reminded by the beauty around me that I was very thankfully alive.

I pulled a micro out of my backpack - but I think you will find the choice of container a bit on the humorous side.

A washout down the canyon may possibly get worse, so it is possible the best approach may be from higher at 244. We did the entire road in a minivan, and only scraped bottom once or twice, so you probably won't have any problem. Just know that this road can vary from easily passable to quite an adventure, so use your best judgment.

Cache sits a 7,889ft in elevation. Coordinates averaged with over 200 samples and netting 11 feet accuracy (a whole rack of birds, despite the foliage), so this cache will be an easy find.
