There are basically two distinct (and large) sections of Al Sabo-
the South section has mountain bike trails, and the North section
has paved walkways but does not allow bikes. There are already two
caches in the South section, so this one is for people who would
rather walk on paved trails instead of bike on singletrack. The
last 200 feet of this hike involves some bushwacking up a steep
hill.
There is a trail map sign at the first set of coordinates. Read
the sign and determine the year that the image was updated (look at
the bottom right side of the sign). Subtract 1122 from that year
and plug the result into these coordinates: N 42° 14.049' / W
85° 39.XXX', where XXX is the number. Those are the cache
coordinates.
Driving directions: From US-131 South take the Centre St.
Exit and go West on Centre. Centre becomes Q ave. Continue on Q
until you reach the 4-way stop at Texas Corners (8th St. and Q
Ave). Go North on 8th St. for 0.1 miles and turn right (East) on
Texas Drive. The parking area is on the left just past Camp
Rota-Kiwan (Boy Scout Camp). N 42° 12.729' / W 85°
40.433'
