Geocache Description:

Geocache located at the beginning of the trail that goes through Los Lagos and eventually reaches the Pioneer Express trail and Folsom Lake.

Our daughter has been riding horses since she was about five years old.
We tried many different sports and activities throughout her childhood, but she has always come back to horseback riding as being the one activity where she never puts up a fuss about going, and never seems to get enough.

Being around horses and horseback riding is Maddie's passion.

Joe Shelton of tbfriends introduced Maddie to a recently retired thoroughbred race horse named Flamin Al.

Maddie fell in love at first sight.

Maddie renamed the horse (previously known as Flamin Al) "Beau", which is French for beautiful or handsome boy.

You are looking for a standard, green ammunition box.
Being an ammo box, the cache has lots of room to house TBs and other items.

To access the trail, heading North on Auburn Folsom Rd you will pass the main gate for Los Lagos. Continue on and look for a horse crossing sign and a small turnout just before Eden Rock Rd. The Los Lagos trail will be on your right through a black metal fence. The trial is only open between 7AM and 7PM.
