The road to this cache is very long, rough, and when wet, it's very
slippery. The sights along the way make it worth it though. You'll
need at least a 2WD high-clearance vehicle to reach the cache, but
I'd recommend a 4WD or an ATV. It's a dead-end road, and very
remote, so come prepared for any eventuality. The shortest way to
get to the cache is to drive west on the Chimney Rock road (also
known as the Green River cutoff road) starting about 5 miles south
of Woodside on US-6. You may also get there from the west by taking
the road to Buckhorn Wash that starts on SR-10 about a mile
northeast of Castle Dale, but it's much longer that way. Make your
way to N39°10.801' W110°29.099', then drive north until you get to
the cache.
The immediate area around the cache isn't spectacular, but the
cliffs across the river are very scenic, and the views along the
way are also very nice. You probably won't see another human on
this road, but you'll likely see some wildlife.
