Geocache Description:


"Please Stay on the gravel paths as much as possible while out here to reduce the wear and tear on the natural landscape"

I was out here awhile ago and saw that this cache was about to be archived and so I tried to adopt it but after getting no response from the CO it got archived and since it's such a good spot I decided to do a redux on it. So here it is:

This cache takes you to the edge of Smith Rock State Park...literally.  The geological formations of this park are one of the attributes that make is so famous.  As you walk along the nearby trail you will find deep cracks in the rock formations.  Be careful as you walk near these drop offs for it is a LONG way down.  If you look in the canyon you can see the Crooked River that meanders through the park.  On the hillside across the river you may view people biking or hiking the steep Burma Road.  

This cache got its name when after a long day of hiking we stumbled upon a nearby bench.  As we enjoyed the view, and the much needed rest, we decided to place a cache nearby.

***Congratulations to h_owl on the First To Find***
