Geocache Description:

Twin Peaks: Muir Sisters


Dingo and I took advantage of the break in the rain to take a pleasant stroll through Mt. Wanda today. The trails were in fine condition, and the hills alive and green, with wildflowers cropping up everywhere.

The two "peaks" in this area are named for John Muir's two daughters Wanda and Helen. I picked out the two highpoints using google earth, plugged them into the GPSr, and... would later be astonished at the accuracy of both waypoints.

This ammo can will be an easy find, but be advised that the ground cover surrounding the area can be pokey and or slippery depending on season, recent weather, etc. It also has an uncanny ability to retain moisture - which it will gladly release into your shoes, socks and pants (if you're wearing them - I was in shorts).

This location offers impressive 360 degree views of the Carquinez Strait, Mt. Diablo, and northern Contra Costa county.
