Geocache Description:

This is a series of caches placed along the powerline running through the valley.   All of the caches are park & grabs if your geo-mobile is able to handle the terrain.  Most of the caches are within 100 yards of the Back 40 mountain bike trail that parallels the "road".  I also provided a waypoint to help you find the way into the valley from Buckingham Drive.  If your geo-mobile is a prius, this would be a good spot to park and hike in.


Cache Intel:

  • Traverse washed out "road" going through dry creek beds
  • After a rain you will likely drive through running water and / or mud holes
  • Take the high road, the low road is blocked by a fallen tree
  • Loose rocks driving up a steep incline, 4x4 likely needed
  • 18pt turn around (might want a spotter), steep back out
  • Elevation: 1,182ft
  • Still Sketchy cell service and location, don't drive over the edge
  • Conklin_Cachers gave me this container a couple years ago, finally found a spot to put it
  • End of the road, backtrack to Buckingham drive
