Parking may be difficult between 8:30am and 4:30pm. There is meter parking nearby, however. Access to the cache may be muddy if there has been recent rain. High river levels may make it completely inaccessable.

Cache is a 1 litre ZiplocŪ canister. No particular FTF item, but as this is my first cache, I've stocked it pretty well with goodies.

Watch your step: There is a lot of brush and broken branches lying around the area to hide stuff underthat you might trip over.

Whew. Bit of a good hike to get from 'Pointpath 2' cache to this one. Had worked up a good sweat by the time I ended up back over here. In either case, the trail leading up to this one was pretty self-explanatory. Didn't take long before I had a cache container in my hands.

However, there seemed to have been a bit of an accumulation of water in this cache. Most (if not all) of the items in the cache were either some material that water didn't ruin, or were covered in plastic (like the signature cards), so they were fine. The baseball card in there was looking a little damp, so I tried to lay it in a way that it wouldn't be sitting directly against a surface of the inside of the cache. Poured out the water that had pooled at the bottom, and tossed a chainmail ball inside. Should be good for the next little while, anyway . However, the shoelaces in there were quite the useful, since my current ones are beaten to hell and back. Not from today or anything, but over time they've worn away and broke so many times, that on one shoe the string only goes through 4 of the 8 shoelace holes. Whoever left this has officially made my shoes capable of being tied again, instead of some mangly old string knotted together four times holding it on .

Took: Shoelaces
Left: Logbook entry, stretchy rubber lizard, and chainmail ball
