Most of my caches are either very short strolls or micros. I have
always wanted to place some caches that would take folks to great
views along beautiful terrains. Pinnacle Park is such a hike.
Almost 6.5 miles round-trip it is much easier on the return hike.
The views at the top are well worth the effort!
Cache will be found about 10 feet to the right of the trail.
Cache is a small Lock&Lock and full of the usual. Please sign
the log and let me know how the hike is going so far.
