Geocache Description:


On January 6th, 2017, Trail_Rated and I came to this area to attempt the Lake Wilson Challenge.  After 4 hours of hiking, bushwhacking, triangulating, and calculating distance and bearings we found all of the Challenge caches and the Final.  Some of these caches were very lonely, last found 35 months ago, almost 3 years!

In the middle of hiking to the next cache we got distracted at this location.  We climbed to the top of what looks like a giant cairn.  We decided to hide a cache to commemorate the day.  You are looking for a small container with a little room for swag.  Teamwork is recommended for safety.  BYOP.
Provided waypoints for Parking, Trailhead, and a cave to check out.
