This cache is located at an ancient Indian cave/overhang. I learned of this site from a local engineer/historian. He told me that the site was excavated extensively for artifacts in the 1970's by a local archelogist/school teacher. Information of this site was included in one of his books and I will add a history to the description when I attain the book.
It is a short walk from the parking area but the last thirty yards is very steep. Recommend using a walking stick (or plain old stick) to help with the climb and decent.
