Geocache Description:

This tree is a show stopper - a giant eucalyptus tree covered with a huge cactus or succulents growing up its trunk and out on its branches.

This cache is located on the old Village Golf Course which is no longer a golf course - it is very overgrown - and the owners have opened the former golf paths to walkers. There are stunning panoramic views of the ocean, the neighboring islands and a hidden lake with ducks. You can bring some bread to feed them.

The Kapalua Adventure Center sometimes has trail maps available but if not, maps are posted at the Adventure Center and at various spots along the trail. You can park at the Adventure Center.

Follow the signs and go through the first tunnel and up the path.

This cache is a micro bison tubes wired to the tree. Please do not "unwire" the tube - unscrew it, sign the log and screw the bottom back on. You might need tweezers to take out the log and you will definitely need a writing implement.

Bring water and you might want to bring bug spray, sunscreen, a hat, a snack, and a poncho as rain is always a possibility. Enjoy your hike!
