Geocache Description:


No, not the Garmin kind.  The other kind.  This spot has a nice view (not staggering, but nice).  It's a nice view when it's raining lightly, and it's a nice view when it's clear.

It's probably possible to approach this from the east, but don't. Honor private drives by parking at N47 43.475 W122 01.715 and make a very pleasant .8 mile stroll to the cache. 

The views at the outset will not be spectacular but improve steadily as you approach the cache.  If you're up to a bit of a hill climb it's worth it to stroll down to the guard rail down the hill and view things from there.

The trail from the parking spot I suggest to the cache is hardpacked gravel.  Rain leaves puddles but not much mud.  Terrain is rated as 2 only because if you park at the suggested parking it's a 1.6 mile roundtrip walk.

WAAS reception is possible at the cache, and the coordinates were taken using WAAS.  There's no need for bushwacking or tresspassing/fence climbing to reach the cache.  Please try to re-hide the cache carefully, rearranging things to make it not stand out.
