Geocache Description:


This series of 30 caches will take you on a 3-mile walk through the desert where you may encounter cactus, wildlife, sagebrush and adventure.
Rules:
Please park in the pullout at N43° 33.211 W 112° 34.262, it is safer than parking alongside the highway.
Please pick up any garbage you find.

When in a group, please spread out so trails are not created.
Watch out for Cryptobiotic crust

(Because of their thin, fiberous nature, cryptobiotic soils are extremely fragile systems. A single footprint or tire track is sufficient to disrupt the soil crust and damage the organisms. While some species within the soil crust system may regrow within a few years of a disturbance, the damage to slow-growing species may require more than a century before the delicate soil returns to its former productivity.

No off road vehicles.
Please remember lots of water and will power.
Good luck and be safe!
