GoGoJo: It looks like this ammo box developed legs and walked off, how sad. Time to let this one go.

Geocache Description:


After doing the other 757 Secret Trailhead caches then this one should be easy! On a more serious note, this ammo box cache IS located within 100' of yet another trailhead (the top of Razorback Ridge Trail) in the Windy Hill OSP (Open Space Preserve) in Portola Valley. Preserve is open dawn until a half hour after sunset, please only cache during park hours. Park information can be found at:

Park information, trail maps, and directions

There is a limited amount of parking available up on this trailhead; a much larger (the main) parking lot is available down below in the main lot located on Portola Rd. at N37 22.552 W122 13.369. The assigned terrain rating of 3.5 assumes you hike here and back from this main parking lot.

There is a small amount of poison oak in the general area but it was easily avaidable at the time this cache was placed. Also, remember to check yourself frequently for ticks while you're caching in Windy Hill, especially in the spring and early summer.

9/2/08: Reduced the difficulty/terrain rating from 2/3.5 based on input. It appears most folks are not schleping up from the valley below to get this cache (which makes sense).
