Geocache Description:


Update 8/15/18 - Cache has been located about 50 to 80 feet north of the coordinates along the uphill side of the trail. Check out the new spoiler photo.

A medium lock-and-lock placed just off the trail to Monte Cristo.
Monte Cristo is suppose to be the best ghost town to visit in Washington state. Curious to see it ourselves, we noticed the scarcity of caches along this more than four mile route (eight miles of hiking round trip) we decided to spice up the hike by adding some more geocaches and giving back to the geocaching community.
Don't forget your daily or yearly Northwest Forestry Pass so you don't get ticketed for parking.
This cache may not be available during winter months.
There is a steep hillside to the right (going to MC) of the trail with plenty of nooks and crannies beneath protruding roots for a geocache.
As this is right beside the trail, beware of muggles!
