Geocache Description:

A nice place to stop for a picnic along the Sunset Trail

*** NOTE: I haven't been able to make it back to this cache to swap out the water-logged log book, and probably won't be able to any time in the near future. If someone would be willing to take over responsibility for this cache, please let me know.***

When we came to this place along our hike, we decided to stop and have a picnic, as the place seemed ideal for such an activity.

The cache is a small, round, clear plastic rubbermaid container, hidden without too much effort along the Sunset Trail, a short hike from where it joins with the Timms Creek Trail. It's not hard to find if you find the right spot. We figured if you've hiked this far, you probably don't want to spend hours looking for a cache - however, there are plenty of places here that a cache could hide, and GPS bounces around quite a bit, so the hints may come in handy.

The cache is initially populated with items that may come in handy while camping, which is what we were doing when we placed this cache! Please consider leaving camping-related trade items.

Note: The coordinates were tough to pin down among all the redwoods, so if all else fails, use the hint.

Update: If you've got a good, sensitive GPS unit and can pin down better coordinates for the cache than I've posted, please let me know what you come up with!
