I happened to be in the area finding other caches and parked very, very close to this here spot. On my walk back to my geo-rig I noticed there was no cache here. I had a few containers in my bronco so I decided to place a new one.
Two ways to get here,
1-Mineral Ridge parking lot and trailhead at the bottom of the trail system to the East. Its a lot of up hill but the return trip is down hill.
2-Take Beauty Creek road (Just past Mineral Ridge parking area) East, at fork take Left onto East FS 1575 to the parking cords. This way will get you here without any hiking. This is also a forest service road but it is a pretty good one that most SUV's could make up with no problems.
There are 6 other caches along the trails up here that you could turn into a great day out in mother nature. Bring some water and snacks and enjoy the views.
FTF goes to, Pirates of the St. Joe 5 Hours and 9 mins after published.
PS,
Bring a writing utensil as cache is not big enough to hold one.......
This is a cache container I got from an event a few months ago.
Not the cool container as mentioned above.
****Update, Gate is closed at the bottom of the road due to a long logging project.
