Geocache Description:


This cache will bring you to a very cool and deep cave on Mount McGuire.

Without a quad or dirt bike this will be a very long hike from Slesse Creek Bridge as the first two bridges on the Slesse-Borden Creek FSR are wiped out.

Rick of ricknsheri deciding not to go into the cave.


Directions

From Chilliwack Lake Road at Slesse Creek, turn south on Slesse-Borden FSR and follow main road (avoiding switchbacks), which is very very rough 2wd or more likely 4wd shape, 8km into the upper valley of Borden Creek. Follow a very rough (4wd only) road west for 2km more to a parking spot where McGuire is visible. Start hiking here.

Details

Follow the old, deactivated road past a cave sinkhole and onwards to a triple fork. Take the left branch. at the landing where this road ends, pick up the trail on the right and follow it through fireweed and blueberry bushes into standing timber. Follow the well-travelled trail steeply upwards through forest and meadow onto McGuire's southeast ridge. Continue to summit along ridge crest, some mildly exposed Class 2 scrambling.
