A cache placed while hiking the Willow Creek Ridge / Indian Graves Loop clockwise to help mark the ridge route and take in the view. The cache is 3.1km one way from parking with and elevation gain of 230m. If you complete the Willow Creek Ridge / Indian Graves Loop, expect a hike of just under 9km with an elevation gain of over 400m.

After hiking this loop counter clockwise a few days ago, BVPete and I returned today to try it in the opposite direction. If you are just doing the Willow Creel Ridge or the loop, park at the posted coordinates and then follow the Willow Creek Trail for 1.5km to the posted reference point. From there head up the trail and then veer left and eventually right at the posted reference points and just stay as high as possible as you go. You will soon be heading directly for this cache and the caches up on the Willow Creek Ridge summits. There is some deadfall for a short section lower down, but its the kind you can step over with no issue. The cache is a small LnL. See the spoiler and hint for help. I have attached a track log so you can see the route we took. The extra blue leg can be used if you want to get Sleepy_hollow's cache on the trail before ascending the ridge.
