Took a couple of tries to find this one. First i walked up the correct wash. I was just west the cache actually. But my GPS was saying the cache was to the west of the wash. So i walked back down and then up the ridgeline. From the ridge i looked back across the wash i was just in and could see the cache on the far side! So back down and around again. Oh well. I was a bit hot and tired. This was the forth cache i'd found today. Left a fresh tin of Cinnamon Altoids and took the little pocket magnifier. (Maybe will help me read the GPS.) Took a picture of myself with the cache camera too. Spent the night camped nearby. Note: I'm not sure the wash up to this cache from the main Overland route is actually approved for vehicles. Other people had driven it and i did as well. Use your judgment and don't drive it if you think any damage will be done.
