This is a regular-sized cache near a very pretty waterfalls. To get there, park at the corner of Hwy. 12 and Silverbrook Road where there is a small pullout big enough for a couple of cars. Walk uphill a couple of hundred feet to the trailhead on the east side of the road (N46 32.065, W121 50.614). The trail is well worn and after several hundred feet will take you to the cache and a nice view of the falls. You can walk past the cache location to the base of the falls for a better view, if desired. GPS signal may be a bit jumpy from the heavy tree cover.
The cache container is a camoed regular-sized container and is about 6 feet off the trail. It is well hidden to keep muggle visitors to the falls from finding it. Please hide it as good or better than you found it.
For you waterfalls enthusiasts, we found out after placing the cache that the real name of the falls is Hopkins Creek Falls. This falls has a small watershed, so viewing in the Spring and early Summer is best. By late Summer and Fall, it may just be a trickle.
