Geocache Description:

You will need to bring a pen/pencil.


This is always a good spot to stop and take a rest while hiking through Sycamore Canyon. There is a large stand of dormant poison oak stalks just west of here, so be careful.

The Team Dakiba's "Mighthy Pair" cache used to be across the road. (Major hint). I remember it taking about a half hour to find it because of the whacky way your GPSr spins around at this particular location. Also, because of Dana's reputation, I was thrown off by the cache name. After all, at the time, there was a pair of "Porto pottys", a pair of bear proof trash receptacles, a pair of picnic tables. It turns out that he spelled it wrong. (Or did he?) On later hikes, I remember walking by about six more times and simply looking over and seeing this great cache. Then, one day, it was gone. It was a great cache, and I have duplicated it at least twice.

Oh, By the way, your reader will always be 40-60 feet off. Read the hints, read the logs, and stay out of the Poison Oak.
