Geocache Description:

About 1.5 mile hike back on a beautiful wide trail (or take the wash - you'll end up there anyway) that starts from the parking area. Wear hiking boots for best results (sandals won't cut it) and bring water and a hat. Some slippery rocky surfaces, bring a couple band-aids for skinned knees. Turn around, great views of the east valley!!

The cache was the first ever placed by Scout Pack 478 of Ahwatukee during our own geocaching adventure. It is a green ammo can. Won't be seen easily from the "trail". Please be cautious not to trample the native plants. Contains mostly toys (brand new ones!!).

The coordinates **were** off by about 25-40 feet. It made this find even more fun and had received lots of good feedback about the extra little challenge. The hint contained both a hint-riddle that takes you right to the base of the hint and the coordinates. However, a couple people whined about the coordinates being a bit off (which was not intentional at first) because they did not view the hint - the coordinates have now been updated.

Have fun.
