Geocache Description:

This is THE PLACE to go at 9:30 Friday nights to catch a view of the Gaylord Texan Summer fireworks show on the south side of Lake Grapevine.  This little overlook on the North side of the lake gives a perfect view.  BYOP.

You can park within a few hundred yards of the overlook (make sure you are not parked past the Private Road sign as the locals can get a little testy).  It is a quick and easy walk to the cache.  You will have to walk on a mountain-bike path so keep small children and pets close at hand.  The cache is a small black container a little larger than an old 35mm film canister with a log sheet inside.  Coordinates were done with an iPhone location app.  Let me know if it leads you astray and I will go back and map it with my Garmin.  I planted the cache wearing shorts and flip-flops so no thorns, stickers, chiggers, poison ivy, poison oak, etc., though I did get snagged by a vine.  BYOP.
