This cache is located along a fishing access trail to the Columbia River, there is plenty of off freeway parking, infact there is enough room for about 20+ cars. Although this may be a tricky one to access the parking, as this parking area is mostly known by the local fishing crowd and is a one shot stop due to the fact that if you miss the pullout you will have to take the next exit and head east bound 84 then take the next exit to head west bound again... West bound hwy 84 is your only option for finding the parking area for this trail. The trail is well marked with a sign stating no motor vehicles along with other things you can not do here... (Parking, Hiking and Fishing is Allowed)
The cache itself will not be difficult to find but the trail may be a bit muddy in spots during the wetter weather, the grasses are tall and the vines of the forbiden Rubus Fruticosus are evident but will not be to much of a pain if you stay away from them, there are also some signs of the vicious Urtica Dioica (ortica dio-aca) which is edible while in its younger stage but also can become an irratant to the skin as it develops into a mature plant. Mostly seen in the early spring/summer months, but can be found in the fall as well.. Cache is an ammous cannus--- Enjoy!
