Geocache Description:

First hide on a gorgeous trail that is wheel chair accessible for the first 2 miles. After that it turns more rugged. Use the parking coordinates, and keep the reference point to help find the route back from the river

Cache

I suggest you take this trail in a clock wise direction, and complete the loop. After the last one, you will be climbing out a steep path to get out of the river canyon/

You will be following a wheel chair accessible trail for the first mile. Flume 28 is a spectacular bridge over Rush Creek. Wheel chairs can travel a bit past Flume 28, then the trail starts getting sketchy. When you get to the end of the trail, you follow the road down to the river and then a steep trail climb back up to the reference point.
