See June 6 note below.
This cache is the last step in a series of 2 caches. The above
coordinates are not where the cache is. No puzzle to solve, it just
fits the "?" description.
To begin this series of caches, first find the Mule Hill cache.
There you will find coordinates for this cache. Free parking is
available at the Mule Hill trail.
You can log each waypoint cache as a find on the website. The
caches listed in order are:
- Mule Hill (Log Multi-Cache)
- Beyond Mule Hill (Regular cache)
The trail is an easy, flat 6.3 mile round trip hike that takes
you through the Mule Hill Historical Trail (Mule Hill Cache) and
part of the San Pasqual Valley Agricultural Trail. It is a very
peaceful walk with lots of birds and wild life. It should take
about 2 hours to complete both caches on foot (remember those bonus
points for getting there on foot or bike :D). There is little shade
on most of this trail, so bring water. If it is very hot, do in the
early morning or late afternoon. Both caches are part of the San
Dieguito River Park and suitable for hiking, biking and horses. The
San Pasqual Valley Agricultural Trail is adjacent to active
Agricultural operations. In season you will see organic corn,
asparagus, gourd and squash farmed on your left. Then you will
cross the floodplain and the San Dieguito River. Keep your eyes
open for wild life in this area. Just beyond the river crossing,
there is a picnic table.
The cache is a regular size camouflaged container. The area has
a piece of the valleys history. Do you know what the cache site
area used to be? It is not an old road or bridge!
Unfortunately this area seems to be an illegal dumping ground with
objects too large to CITO out. Beyond this cache, the trail
continues for another 7 miles and soon narrows and climbs for 3,400
feet, gaining 350 in elevation.
