Geocache Description:

A short hike from a little-known entrance to Cougar Mountain Regional Wildlife Park. Nice view from the parking area!

The rapidly growing Newcastle developments are creating back-door entrances to Cougar Mountain. Park at the entrance to the Meadow View Trails, and you’ll have a nice view of Seattle and the Olympics.


Then take a short walk into the park on the Marshall's Hill Trail, and you’ll find this cache tucked away. Reception can be spotty, so use the hint and spoiler photo if necessary. Container is a large Lock&Lock about 30 feet off the trail, but if you walk carefully, you should have minimal impact on the vegetation.
