This cache is located within the boundaries of Elephant Butte State
Park. From the suggested parking area it will be about a 3/4 mile
hike one way. The cache container is a 1 quart plastic food
container. An ability to scramble up rocky washes and hike up
moderately steep terrain may be required. A small monetary FTF
prize is included in the cache. PLEASE RE-HIDE WELL.
This cache is placed in a quiet area where we usually encounter a
few deer when we hike through it. From the parking area you will
most likely want to head southwest down into a wash, then continue
up the wash heading south. After walking a couple thousand feet up
the wash and under a fence running above the wash, it will split
left and right. You could head either direction or up the ridge in
front of you. I recommend continuing up the left hand wash for
awhile before heading up the hill, just to experience the hike up
the rocky wash. At some point you will want to climb the hill
towards the cache. Once on top of the hill and presumably after
finding the cache, please continue to walk the ridgeline another
3/4 mile or so heading south, then southwest, and enjoy the views
and rock formations. When you are ready to start back to the
parking area, I recommend hiking down to the wash that runs along
the west side of the ridge until it rejoins the wash you came up.
The two washes offer different views and rock formations.
