Another cache in what is quickly becoming a peak series of hiking intensive caches. This hike gives great views of Adams, the Goat Rocks, and Rainier. Lots of great picture spots.
The cache is in a rather small fishing tackle box, about the size of a VHS tape. The location should be fairly obvious. The best access to the trailhead is reached off of road 1308 on the upper end of rimrock. continue on this road until it meets with road 1382. Take a right here and continue about 4 miles. on your right will be a sign for the Andy Creek Trail. The road is rough here so walk or drive to the actual trailhead- your call. The hike is ten mile round trip, starting on the Andy Creek trail before joining the Russell Ridge trail. Turn left at this intersection, and continue steadily up hill. After a few miles the route switchbacks steeply, and the trail leads to a saddle between two peaks. The high peak on the east is where the cache is. Be sure to check out the views and sign the summit register. Bring plenty of water.
