Geocache Description:

A good hike in Cuymaca Rancho's East Side Mesa.

I did this hike, a loop, in about 2.5 hours. I was tying to beat a storm and recommend taking it a little easier. There's plenty to see. I saw 15 mule deer, and 6 wild turkeys today. Don't always stare at the trail or your GPSr, look around. The first 5 deer I saw were right at the cache location. Some times of the year bird watching can be great too.

There is a $8 self-registration fee at most parking areas in the park, and it's best to be prepared, there aren't many ways to make change in the park - especially during the week.

If you don't know the area, GET A MAP, the park store, where you'd park for a foot trip, has maps, but is only open on weekends.

If you want waypoints ask. This is a good hike, a couple miles + from parking lot to cache, 500 + feet elevation gain, so the hide isn't too diabolical. Altitude 4713'.

My FTF swag was partially defeated by the store being closed, but there is a 256 MB micro SD with 2 adapters, some carabiners, guitar pick, a Chargers helmet enamel pin, my TB. Enjoy.

BTW, it's named for a favorite singer who died as I was getting this ready.

Congrats ikes for the FTF!

Be aware where you put your hands, RATTLESNAKES are common and active in the warmer months.
