A moderate hike to an interesting location.
Locating this cache requires a moderate hike through the Olympic mountains - roughly five miles. Perhaps not the most scenic hike, but it's pretty when covered in snow. The destination is the payoff - bring a flashlight. An umbrella and a change of footwear might be advisable, but if you're careful you won't need either.
You'll know when you're within a stone's throw of the cache. The area bears some marks of human activity (from the early 1900's) and it should lead you right to a focal point. (At this point, the advisement of rubber boots and flashlight will make sense.)
Once you've found the focal point you won't have to look far, but you've have to look carefully. The cache is tucked away in a nook (or cranny, I'm not sure which) and it'll take some care to reach. I was trying to be clever when placing it, so it's not where you'd think. The cache is a single item - no pen or paper. It's about the size of a soda can. I scribbled on it with a sharpie. If you'd like to exchange it for something else, go ahead.
The hints are sequential, so I suggest decyphering them one at a time.
