Geocache Description:

This cache is available for adoption.

You can't go much further east and still be in Washington.


As the Snake River runs north out of Idaho, it curves this way and that, cutting through layer after layer of rock. The river was here first when the mountains began to rise, starting around three million years ago. At this point, the river has left the deepest part of the canyon, but it still curves, beginning a swing back toward the west. Often confined by rocky sides or bordered by private land, here, the sandy beach and public access provide a great place to launch a boat or just enjoy the water as it flows on by.

As you look for the cache keep in mind that the nearby boat launch may be busy depending on the time of year. The cache should be far enough away from the busiest areas to allow you to find it without too much of an audience.

The cache can hold small trade items. Park in the upper boat launch parking area or the turn-out area next to the road.
