Geocache Description:

Located along the Ballantine Trail near the Beeline Highway (Highway 87).

I decided to hide a series of caches along a trail that has not yet been discovered by geocachers. This is the second of 3 that I hid on the day. This was a fantastic hike, I just wish I had more time to explore further down the trail (ran out of daylight). This cache is located along the first part of the Ballantine Trail, the elevation gain from Pine Creek View to this cache was about 500 feet.

Although most of the hike was uphill, it wasn't too difficult (plus had a lot of scenery). The container itself is the same one used at Pine Creek View. Be sure to bring a pen/pencil to sign the log.

As with any hiking cache, be careful and watch for loose rocks. Also, make sure to bring plenty of water and watch out for snakes and other desert critters.

Good Luck and Enjoy!
