Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
This cache is located near one of Washintons many underground
pipelines. a short distance from the parking area.
There are 27 pipeline companies in Washington operating about
43,000 miles of pipelines. Eighteen of the pipelines carry natural
gas and 11 carry hazardous liquids such as gasoline and jet fuel.
These pipelines include large-diameter lines carrying energy
products to population centers, as well as small-diameter lines
that may deliver natural gas to businesses and households in your
neighborhood. The energy products carried in pipelines fuel our
lives and our livelihoods. They heat our homes and schools, power
our industrial base and enable our daily commutes. Pipelines are a
relatively safe method for transporting energy products.
Nevertheless, they can and sometimes do rupture, posing serious
risk. That's why we encourage everyone in Washington to learn about
pipelines and the products they carry, as well as a few simple
steps you can take to help ensure pipeline safety in your
community. Mileage Overview Pipeline Type Interstate Mileage

The rules of etiquette for trail user
when horses and people share the trails are the same everywhere:
All other users always yield to horses or other livestock. Whenever
possible, people on foot should step off the side of the trail and
let the riders pass. They should not try to hide from the horses,
but should remain clearly visible to them. It also helps if they
speak to the riders and horses as they approach. For more info on

Association website at (www.pilchuckra.org).
