Geocache Description:

The above corrdinates are not the location of the cache. This cache requires the finding of the Fort Benham, Benham View, and Benham Falls Caches first.


Cache is an ammo can.

The four Benham Caches (Fort Benham, Benham View, Benham Falls, and Benham Bonus) are located on the Benham Buttes which are a group of 1.8 million year old rhyodacite domes. Access to the area is from the road to West Benham Falls trailhead. There are some roads into the area but the area is posted as no motorized vehicles so please respect the closure. Many of the roads overgrown but still make great hiking or biking trails. The first three caches can be done individually or all at the same time as part of a 5 mile loop. To do the Benham Bonus cache you must do the other three first.

A = Bonus number from Fort Benham Cache
B = Bonus number from Benham View Cache
C = Bonus number from Benham Falls Cache
EE = A - B
FFF = A - C
