This is one of a series of caches
within the Cibola National Forest. This particular cache is
hidden at the top of Cedro Peak (elevation 7757 feet), with
magnificent views of the surrounding Cibola Forest. The hike
to this cache is a half mile walk up the service road. If you
want a slightly longer hike, you can park at the Cedro Peak
Campgrounds.
Driving Instructions:
From I-40, take exit 175 south to Tijeras.
From the traffic light in Tijeras follow these odometer
readings.
0.0 Go south on NM 337 (aka Old Highway 14).
5.0 Turn left (east) on Juan Tomas Road.
5.7 Turn left (northward) on Forest Road 252.
7.3 Turn right at the junction towards Cedro Peak.
7.5 Park at the gate, but do not block it.
Hiking Instructions:
Hike up the service road behind the gate. The gate is just there to
stop unauthorized vehicles. Hikers and bicyclers are permitted. The
road will circle the hill on the way to the peak. If you're
observant, you might find some fossils in the limestone.
The cache is in an ammo can.
