Timber Mountain Intersection Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Dustydew: Sadly, Magic 1 was correct. The timber company has put a gate on the Timber Mtn road off of Galls Cr Rd and Left Fork of Foots Creek Rd is now closed to the public, so we are archiving this cache.

Geocache Description:


This intersection is where the Timber Mtn Road connects to BLM Road 37-3-21.1 which connects to the upper end of Galls Creek Road. We discovered a cool loop that could be done from Galls Creek Road to the Left Fork Foots Creek Road thanks to this intersection. You do have to be extremely careful of dirt bikes and OHVs because this all connects to the Timber Mountain OHV area as well, so they have the right to be on the same roads as vehicles.

If you have not found the Rogue/Applegate Valley View Cache that has been hidden since 2002, here is your chance! At this intersection go UP the road about 1.5 miles to a good place to stop (and turn around). Then you have to walk about 300' to the cache. The view at the cache is not the greatest, but the views on the drive up are worth the trip! It is pretty rocky in places, but we did it in our 4x4 Expedition.

At this intersection you are looking for a small plastic container with a couple trade items and a log. Please rehide it well so muggles don't see it as they are speeding by. There is no where to park, but on the road. You can turn around with a little work. Galls Creek, Timber Mtn and Foots Creek roads are pretty rough, gravel, rocky and potholes. But, hey - they are mountain roads!

Elevation 3550'.
