Geocache Description:

The Cedar Butte trail begins at 2,200 feet. Distance is just over 3/4 mile to the summit with a 700ft elevation gain. The final steep climb to the top pays off with sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, the town of Tillamook, the and Kings Mountain ridgeline. Bring water and wear sturdy hiking boots. Terrain is rated 3.5 due to rough access road and steep trail. See related web link for Tillamook State forest trail guide. The trail is open to hikers only.

Directions to Trailhead: Travel on Highway 6, and turn north onto Cedar Butte Road between milepost 17 and 18. Use caution as the road gets rough beyond this point and there may be truck traffic. Mark your mileage here and watch for posted signs. Drive over the bridge and continue straight at the Muesial Creek Road junction (0.1 mile). At 2.0 miles turn right at the “Y” intersection. At 4.8 miles the Cedar Butte Road veers left. Continue another 0.7 mile to the trailhead. Park in the wide area at the “Y” intersection and walk 300 feet west down the secondary road to the information board.
