Trail's End Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Sport Trac/k: They have closed the road to the public that led to this cache and the only way to get to it is by hiking or biking the canal, how I originally discovered the place. When I placed it the road was open from Power Rd to the canal and the no trespassing signs started after the canal. They have now put the no trespassing signs right at the Power Rd. turn off. As people seem to want to get there by car from Power Rd, ignoring the no trespassing signs, I am going to archive.

Geocache Description:

I found this on a bike ride, at the end of the trail. You can bike it like I do if you want to ride round trip 14 miles starting from the canal on the north side of McDowell across from "My $3 Stash Cache"(Sheepherders Park, East of Gilbert on McDowell). If you want to try it by car, and can find the route, you can park within .15 miles (obeying the signs that say "no motor vehicles allowed" and No Trespassing).

I like this bike route because it offers so much scenery and you have the entire ride to yourself. It is not challenging or difficult, as it is canal the entire way. Of course it also helps that I can bike it from my house. The canal ends here so I usually hike around for awhile and then ride back. This is a pretty secluded area, watch for wild horses, cows and native wildlife. There is even a large nest (eagle?) within viewing distance. The container is a coffee can.
