Got this one while on a good nature hike. I love this area, it's great for a vacation.

I had my neices and nephew with me on this one. We climbed the rocks to find out that we didn't need to. Oh well. It was still a lot of fun. TFTC

This cache is mostly kid's stuff. We replaced the container and it is now good to go. Took pen and left a camping poncho.

Both lid and container are broken. Probably should be replaced soon so contents don't get soaked.
