Geocache Description:

One in our Official Tantalus Bench Cache series.

Almost a park-n-grab along the Kalawahine Trail. This is the teaser to keep you going after The Map Room, CRider's Pauoa Loop caches, Nuuanu Nest Egg, or our other Tantalus Bench caches.

You're looking for a small cammo'd plastic container. The GPSr was jumping around a lot, but this shouldn't be a difficult find, with the hint. FTF is an unactivated gold Geohana geocoin.

Please note the following about hiking in Hawaii:
Before You Go:
  • Get Information: If this is your first excursion on the trail, find out about the route.
  • Inform others: Tell someone at home (or if you are a visitor – at where you are staying) the trail’s name and location, and when you plan to return.
  • Accurately asses you and group capabilities: Be aware of physical limitations, skill, and energy levels.
  • Check the weather forecast for the day: If a storm is coming consider another day – or trails in dryer areas.
  • Cary a small pack with more water than you think you need. Also some basic first aid materials, energy snacks, cell phone, plastic garbage bag(for either rubbish or to put use if it is raining if you do not pack rain gear
  • Wear sturdy and comfortable shoes with good traction
When You Are Out There:
  • ALWAYS STAY ON SIGNED AND MANAGED TRAILS!
  • If you are uncertain about the correct direction while on a trail: turn around and return the way you came.
  • Consider hiking with a companion.
  • Keep track of time and allow enough time to return before dark.
  • STOP MOVING: If you become injured, get lost or it gets dark. If you have a cell, all 911. If you have left information on where you are hiking, rescue will know where to come.
