Geocache Description:

Stretch your legs! You get to walk 200 feet on a wide footpath, and then duck into a clearing underneath giant fir trees - a clearing completely umbrella'd in by the towering conifers, and oddly bedecked with a piece of ancient furniture with moss swallowing it up - hopefully not along with the cache.


Harry Nilsson was a great songwriter, and since I was a child, I especially loved his album "The Point" - great cartoon, too. Listen to the song "Me and My Arrow" if you can find it! Here you'll be pulling off at the big arrow sign, where there is an ample pullout space. Take a nice leisurely walk down this path (nice and wide but very sandy in spots- and watch for the deep gulch on the left side, you don't want to go down there!). There are abundant wild blackberries to be had on the way. At some point you will need to turn right and enter the canopy of the woods - I've provided the waypoint for that, and you will look for the low sweeping branches of the fir trees to enter through.
