T.N.T it's a steep climb
Update 2018- the T.N.T trail has been updated to a newer route. The find is in the same spot. However a better trail may be more efficient ( i.e) the Vista trail? The straight up the bluff can be done but is for the hardcore.
I do not know the best modern way to get to the overlook, But hey, use your smart phone like everyone else.

T.N.T (that’s not a trail)
Actually it is a legal route to connect to the Marsh trail system to the HPT bike trail system.
(I also have a geocache in the HPT Trails)
This find is on a rock out-cropping on a bluff side trail, please be prepared for steep inclines.
The most likely place to start would be the Hixson forest parking lot area.
Just to the north of the lower Hixson trailhead you will find the “bottom” of the T.N.T trail see the posted sign and up you go. It can also accessed from the (top) rim of the city road location = N 43.49.570 W 091.12.255
Please Hide the Find well as it is actually a well-traveled area.
NOTE: Geocachers have been "bushwacking" this find. I uploaded a map, you can follow the trail and turn North West about half way up the hill. I have never gone straight for it, but it sounds like a lot more work than the trail.
9/27/09 Added a pair of cheap Binoculars to the geocache, please leave these in the box for others to enjoy.
