This is probably my favorite of all the Price River View caches.
The river winds lazily back and forth through here, and the view is
excellent from the cache location. The area is somewhat remote, so
come prepared for any eventuality. The road crosses several washes
that are prone to flash-flooding, so a 2WD high-clearance vehicle
is required to reach the cache, 4WD when wet. Or, the drive from
Mounds is short enough that it would make a nice mountain bike
ride. From the south side of the railroad crossing at Mounds, drive
east 0.6 miles and turn right, then just follow your GPS.
The cache is located on the hill to the southeast from where the
road ends. There is a well-travelled foot path leading downhill
below the cache, but where it goes I have no idea. Please make sure
that no part of the cache container is visible before you leave.
