Geocache Description:

Desert terrain with lava and sage. Elevation 5382 feet.

Two for the price of one.
There are two containers. To find the second, you'll have to find the first.

Follow the road between the buttes. The trail head is at the top of the parking area at N 43°46.722' W 111°58.407'. The trail is marked by orange plastic strips tied to sage brush. There is no water! You will want to bring something to drink.

Children under five, and the elderly, will have trouble getting up the hill. Motorized vehicles are prohibited. A mountain bike won't do you much good. You'd have to carry it most of the way.

The containers are white plastic with blue lids. Metal ammo boxes were much too heavy to carry up there!

When you look around to make sure no one is watching you, don't forget to look up!

Tip: It is easier and faster to go east down around the ridge of rock between the two containers. If you go straight up and over, be ready for rougher, steeper terrain.

Original items to be found in the caches are
some things you might need when you're out hiking:

  • Lotion
  • Band-Aids
  • Pocket knife
  • Matches Please don't start a wildfire!!!
  • Extra batteries (2AA)
  • Rain poncho
  • Whistle
  • Flashlight
  • Antibacterial Ointment

  • and JF added a toy ring and a plastic stone with a cute, tiny frog on it

The Band-Aids and the Antibacterial Ointment are in different containers. If you need them both, you'll have to find them both
