Geocache Description:

An epic-sized dune hike.

"Too often. . .I hear men boast of the miles covered that day, rarely of what they had seen." - Louis L'Amour

This is a 4 part multi-cache and will take some time and energy to complete. If you do it all at once, be prepared to travel at least 8 miles on foot. This area is off-limits to motorized vehicles, so solitude is guaranteed. If possible, toss on your backpack and spend the night along the way. This way you can break up the trek and enjoy a night in the dunes. Excellent spots to camp can be found with a bit of looking. Weather and wind can be unpredictable, so come prepared.

The coordinates will take you to the first container, which will include the coordinates for the second, and so on. The final cache is in a metal ammo can and contains the usual assortment of goodies. The containers at each point contain a logbook, but in order to claim this as a 'find' you must reach the end!

First finder gets a signed photo from Actress/Geo-model Sasha Azevedo and Oregon Gold Geocoin #1448. The first leg takes a few feet of bushwhacking to reach.
