Geocache Description:

An easy, flat X-C hike to a scenic viewpoint.

The cache itself is NOT at a viewpoint of Walnut Canyon. It is a short distance from an AZ Trail parking lot. To get to scenic viewpoints hike one half mile due south of the geocache location. You will enter Walnut Canyon National Monument Land and be on a scenic peninsula overlooking the canyon unpopulated by visitors to the National Monument who arrive from the main entrance. You should have no trouble getting to scenic viewpoints if you follow the above, but the exact locations of one scenic viewpoint can be found in the back of the logbook in the cache. You will get to others by heading further south from this one. Note: This is called Walnut Canyon 0 since it is east of Walnut Canyon 1 - 3 which run east-west. This cache is also separate from the others and you probably wouldn't hike from this to the others.
