Geocache Description:

Microcache longer than a film canister but smaller diameter. I almost hide the cache in the nearby stone wall but I'm afraid people may tear down the wall looking for a cache. Please try to put cache back into the same spot, it could fall just a foot and be lost. You should have relatively private space while searching. I've also heard of people running into snakes while caching, use care and don't surprise any critters while caching.

5-25-09, I raised the difficulty due to the poison oak

After years of spotting these stone walls crisscrossing the hills here (It looks like images from Scottish Highlands) I finally tried some research into whom built them and why. The listed web site (visit link)
is the first info I found, which basically informs that different people built the walls at different times for different reasons. Please provide more information in your cache log if you have any.
Cache is Orange color with Geocache Sticker, and contains a log sheet and room for very small trade items.
