Geocache Description:

Inspired by the view and other caches left by vacationers, here is a picture perfect spot for you. We arrived here in July at sun set after a very hot but fun day of exploring the Mt. Shasta area. A very peaceful alpine environment where the breeze was cooler, birds sang, dragonflies danced around while the dimming sunlight softened the view of Mt. Shasta. (Meanwhile, the kids continued playing game boys in the back of the truck!)

Difficulty is a single star as you should have no problem finding the cache IF you have nice weather. Terrain is a 3.5 star since over 5,000 feet the weather can be a problem. When we went back to set the cache it was in the middle of a violent thunderstorm with heavy rain, hail, lighning bolts all around and "no counting" thunder that shook the truck. We suspect it will also get snowed in for long periods during the winter months.

Do not risk getting stuck as "snow not removed (from the road) on a regular schedule". Please be mindful of the non-cachers as it appears to be a popular area for the locals. (Maybe they come up for the submarine races? wink, wink.

You are looking for a regular cache in a clear circular tupperware-like container with a white lid. But now it is in a standard green ammo can. As vacationers we may not be able to get back anytime soon. Manage the cache as you see fit, as we have done for other caches in the area.
