Geocache Description:


Boulder Dash is a series of 13 caches along a 10 km trail loop on the southwestern slopes of McKee Peak on Sumas Mountain.



This series of caches will bring you to varied scenery with waterfalls, rock formations, some rock bluffs, and lots of wildlife with great views of the Fraser Valley. The full loop will take approximately 4 to 6 hours to complete. It is easy to adjust the loop for shorter hikes.

You can start the series at two different points - parking is available at N 49 03.701 W 122 14.206 (Harvest Drive) and at N 49 03.213 W 122 13.466 (Sandringham Drive). The construction of the Whatcom Road Connector is currently underway. The site is clearly marked and fenced off so there is no need to trespass. Please note the coords for the trailhead off Sandringham Drive - N 49 03.279 W 122 13.669 - as it is easy to walk past it. Steep entrance here.

If you start the series at Harvest Drive you may want to spend some time taking in the view at "Fallin' Treasure GCMZ42".

All caches are a variety of small containers hidden within feet of the trail so no bushwhacking is required. Trails can be slippery when wet as I have personally experienced;-) - most caches were placed while it was pouring rain. Please give mountain bikers the right of way. They built and maintain several trails in the area.

The FTF prize will be awarded to the first geocacher who can correctly identify, in the right order, the type and shape of all cache containers in this series.
