Geocache Description:

hole in the rock
This .30 caliber ammo can is hidden near one of the great terrain features on the east side of Henry Coe Park, The Hole in the Rock. You may want to bring a camera and/or a swim suit.

The cache is about a 500' walk along the stream from the Kaiser Aetna dirt road, about 8.5 miles from the Bell Station entrance to the park. The cache is on the SW side of the stream near the Hole in the Rock but hopefully far enough away from the many mugggles that around here on the annual Backcountry Weekend. There is a convenient boulder step bridge to reach the cache. Watch out for the poison oak that grows on that side of the creek but it was all easily avoided at the time of placement.

Coords were averaged 300 times but I didn't have the best reception here.

The terrain and attributes are based on the 363 days of the year when you have to hike or bike in from Bell Station. If you come during the backcountry weekend, the terrain is about 2* at most, and it's a popular spot for families with kids.

Please replace the cache securely and cover it up so no muggles are likely to notice it.

The cache is mostly stocked with toys but there are also some things for the adults, including a geocaching trailer hitch cover, some geo-pins donated by the Mystery Ink, etc. First to find prize is a Moun10Bike wooden nickel.
