I don't know what was wrong. Maybe the heat was getting to us or something.

Decided to finish up some of the caches in the area. Blaze has been here before, but that was before we took up caching. Forshirs first time. We love the view here.

Happyone and I visited the cache today, and added new cool stuff to the new container. Hope you enjoy the hike as much as we did.

A little warm out today but we had a nice hike in. Walked in from El Toro and stuck to the right at the top of the hill. Beautiful little lake - lots of critters out. Took the I love camping container and left blue glass star - Thanks for the great location and hide..

What a great place. It is really nice around the lake. Out with Ycats&Ekard for some caching. Easy find, but the walk is about 2.5mi round trip from El Toro Rd. Needs more caches on the trail to get some more cachers out to this cache. Thanks for the interesting location and the exercise.
