The road leading down to the cache is a little rough, but drivable to less .15 mile of the cache. Those of us that go caching in Rolls-Royces and Lamborghinis should opt to park at the staging area to Otay Mountain and walk the less than one mile down into this beautiful canyon.
As you approch the cache site, you will likely come across signs warning you of areas of sensitive habitat. Please heed these warnings. I know I am preaching to the chior here, but it is terrible when a few people mess things up for the rest of us. I for one would love to keep some of these areas open to visitors.
As I was dropping down into the canyon I saw a King Snake in the middle of the road. I stopped and tried to usher him to the side of the road. He just curled up and shook his tail trying to fool me into thinking he was a rattlesnake. I finally had to pick him up and set him back in the brush out of harms way. I only tell this story because one of the King Snakes favorite food is Rattlesnake, so be careful where you put your hands, feet, etc.
Once you get withing 25 feet I think the hiding spot should be fairly obvious.
