Geocache Description:

This is second in the series of Star Wars caches. The cache is a "Puzzle-Multi-Letterbox." *The cache is not at the posted coordinates*. The coordinates are for the FS gate. You must solve the puzzle to find the first stage which will be a metal tag attached to a tree, which will give you the coords to the final stage. You may park at the gate or on the pulloff area off of Hwy244.


Darth Vader has discovered that the rebel resistance has a secret outpost on Earth. He has dispatched several bounty hunters and Sith Lords to track down the rebel alliance. Do you possess the powers of the Force to seek out and find the cache and crush the power of the Dark Side? This is a short hike that takes you through a valley surrounded by oaks, pines and aspens. Towering granite peaks can be seen in the distance to the SW. This is a family fun hike that should take about 30 minutes roundtrip. Stick to the FS road 351.1C until you reach the first stage. Please leave the Letterbox stamps with the cache and bring your own ink pad. For a more challenging hike be sure to check out my first in the series “The Force”-GC1EFWN.
