Pride Rock Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

3cd's: I took the nice hike up here today just to confirm the private property signs. I haven't been able to hike much lately so I used this as an excuse to get up here and check for myself. I was hoping to grab the cache so I could relocate it but did not feel comfortable crossing the signs....as I would not expect anyone else to. This cache had a good run and took some cachers on a nice hike. All done though! Thanks to those who visited it!

Geocache Description:

Tin hidden in the rocks

This cache is hidden on the trails above the "Devil's Punchbowl" Start out at the end of Ramona Oaks. It is a paved road for about 1/3 of a mile then turns into a dirt fire road. It climbs steeply at first but then levels out. Nice hike with great views. We spotted a Golden Eagle when we hid our caches and talked to some Wildlife Trackers that were in the area. They confirmed it was near. Also be on the watch for snakes as we have seen one close up on a prior hike.
We hiked up here after heavy rains to see the waterfalls. They were flowing heavily when we hid the cache. Mountains were snow covered and it was a cool day. Be sure and bring plenty of water during the warmer months....Have fun!
NAMING TRIVIA: As we approached this hide site, my oldest son spotted the rock and said it looked like Pride Rock from the Disney movie "The Lion King."
