The nearby trailhead on the Talus side is a great starting point
for exploring the east side of Cougar Mountain with a nice 2 mile
round-trip along Bear Ridge Trail. Plenty of parking should be
available at the parking coordinates.
Towards the trailhead, you will pass through the new
neighborhood “The Bridges at Talus”.
The cache is placed within the boundaries of Cougar
Mountain Regional Wildland Park and while there’s no
gate, access should be kept between 8am and dusk. There’s
absolutely no need to leave the trail and no special acrobatics are
required to retrieve the cache.
Area is well covered by Green Trails Maps #203S and Switchbacks Northwest Trails map.
