This is
the 3rd in a series of “No More” Caches. Places and
things that once were but are No More. (some others in the
series,
Mill,
Bridge)
While out driving around Mormon Emigrant Trail (MET),
actually probing side roads looking for another cache, I came
across this place. I instantly recognized it for what it had been
and said to myself “self a great place for a ‘No More’ cache.”
Soon this will be all that is left of the
Baltic Peak Lookout, although the tower from Baltic is
suppose to end up in Gold Bug Park in Placerville as a display
piece. Who knows what happened to this place. No, really I mean who
knows, anyone-anyone, Bueller-Bueller, sorry I
digress.
The MET does not have any snow removal during the winter but there
are times when the road is open but these side roads are covered in
snow, the intrepid cacher that is a x-country skier or a snow-shoer
should be able to reach this cache.
Please be careful and don’t disturb the “device.” You will know it
when you see it.
It also appears to be some revelry is going on here, maybe some
camping too so I moved the hide several hundred feet away from the
main area in hopes that the above mentioned revelers don’t find
it.
The usual Sierra warnings: Snakes, bears, bugs, mt. lions and
maybe a poison plant or two.
