You can see the three peaks from quite a distance. The road to them is fairly long (about 3 miles) and circuitous, with several rough spots. You will need to approach from the South West side.
You can approach from the highway near Virgin. Cross the Virgin River on Sheep Bridge and go 2.9 miles South. Or you can take Highway 59 East from Hurricane and go North on the Sheep Bridge road. Turn East on the side "road" at about N37* 10.718', W 113* 14.320', just past the canal trail sign. This road follows a dry wash. It winds south and then back up to within 1/2 mile of the peaks.
Hike up a dry wash and then go up the "canyon" to the right of the middle peak. There is a sort of animal trail on the right side of this canyon. The most difficult part is at the base of the peaks where a layer of rock is almost vertical. The best place to go up seems to be on the right side of this canyon. (follow the animal trail)
The cache is an ammo can - nothing too difficult about finding it once you get on top.
