Nomex: As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Geocache Description:


Well, this cache was going to be named "Dam Cache" because I was going to hide it during my hike to Gibralter Dam....but the road was closed so I took the Aliso Canyon Trail. For info on this trail please visit this site: (visit link)

The cache is hidden in a spot where you have a great view of Upper Oso Campground. The trail makes a loop and goes back to the trailhead in the Sage Hill Campground. You need an adventure pass to park.
