Geocache Description:


This cache was hidden on Israel National Trail, in Ksalon wadi/stream trail. The Ksalon trail goes from Bnei Brit cave in the west to Ein Rafa in the east.

This is a very pleasant walk of few hours in a moderate terrain. At times the ridges tower over the stream. 

I spotted birds of prey, many singing birds, butterflies, and different trees such as the unique katlav.

Along the way there are few memorial signs of Jewish communities which that part of the forest is in their names. This is all part of "Yaar Kdoshim" (holy men forest).

Unfortunately, some parts of the forest up the ridges were destroyed by a fire few years back. 

 

This cache was hidden as part of the Israel National Trail Multi Cache - GCA7KQ2. At the top of the logsheet you should find the value for K2.

In case cache is gone take a photo of gz and let me know. Backup - the value of the clue is also written at GZ if you pay close attention.

GZ is obvious here under the big rock. Please hide back well behind stones.
