Geocache Description:

A nice leg stretcher in the Catherine Creek area.

First, a thank you to trusttabitha for letting us put this cache in. She archived one of her caches to open this one up. To get to the cache site go about 4 miles east of Bingen on Highway 14. You will go past the Courtney Rd parking area for Coyote Wall and take the next turn on old Highway 8 that goes around Rowland Lake. Continue on up until you come to the Catherine Creek Trailhead. Walk through the gate and follow the trail to the right and then take the foot bridge when you come to the creek. Follow the trail up past the old corral and on up the hill. Keep following the trail up to the right and you will end up on top of the bluff and the cache site. About half way up the hill your GPS will tell show you are about 200 ft from the cache but that is the foolhardy route. Just keep following the trail up and around. Be careful around the cache because it could be a rough trip down. You can follow the trail on down to the road and follow it back up to the parking area. There are about 6 caches along the loop.
The cache has been changed to a PVC pipe with screw on ends on each end. Please make sure ends are screwed back on.
