Geocache Description:

Take Sweetwater Springs Road either east from Armstrong Woods Road in Guerneville or west from Westside Road near Hop Kiln Winery.

This is located on a good road but the route is steep and winding and rises to an elevation of 1040 feet above sea level. The cache is located at an elevation of 976 feet on the western slopes, at a large oak tree not far past the crest (or before, if you're driving east) and just a few steps off the road. There is room to pull out and park if you're driving. If you're biking or hiking, it is a steep climb either way.

The views are lovely. Down the western slope you will pass an old cinnabar mine (used for a pigment and to extract mercury).

"For my part, I travel not to go anywhere but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move." from Travels with a Donkey, R. L. Stevenson

The cache is a peanut butter jar and now contains clue slips to assist you in finding Chris's Cache

WARNING: There is poison oak in the area but this shouldn't be a major problem.
