Geocache Description:

The cache is on Horse Mountain in Mount Spokane State Park. From the parking lot of the Mount Spokane cross-country ski area it is about 2.25 miles. The cache is on the edge of a large rock formation in the alpine meadow on the top of Horse Mountain.

The cache is best reached by following the mining road from the parking lot of the Mount Spokane cross-country ski area to almost the top of Quartz Mountain and taking a branching trail from there to the top of Horse Mountain. The mining road winds around to the top of Quartz. Just before the top there is a horse trail branching off to the east; here are the coordinates where the trail branches off the mining road (N 47 53.133 W 117 04.871). This branching trail takes you east across the saddle separating Quartz Mountain from Horse Mountain. When you reach the meadow on Horse Mountain, take the right fork - it will take you almost directly to the cache. Caitlin found it before I even posted it and left a note in the logbook. Way to go Caitlin! There is a look-out at the top of Quartz Mountain. From there you can see the meadow on the top of Horse Mountain and the rock formation where the cache is - just to get oriented.
