Part of the "Three Ways To Approach" series of caches.
Micro cache, so bring your pen.

While exploring Bonita Habitat Trail, we found this spot leading out the sports park.
I came upon this interesting view just up the stairs.

I was surprised to find out that the trail actually passes through the park.
There are no helpful signs to keep you on the trail, follow your senses.

You can come from the road and park at the sports park OR you can walk up from the
path from the Bison Bridge OR you can walk down from the gated community
above the habitat area.

In the distance, you can see the cache called If they build it, when will they come? GCY9N8
while standing at this cache...

Be careful to replace the cache where you find it. PLEASE.
No bushwacking, it's a HABITAT area....
Bring a pen but NO swag...

Found it 1/20/2007 by Happy & Skippy
This was the last of our early morning stroll through the area. We hadn't prepared for these caches; now we know how they got their names. Enjoyed the views, but decided not to walk over to "If they build it...." UCI sure is expanding. We enjoyed the California quails scurrying across the path on our return trip. TNL pencil.
Thanks for the views,

Skippy :)

Out walking on this beautiful, quiet, Saturday morning. Not many people around. The views are spectacular! We enjoyed the hike up the hill. Thanks for the cache. --Happy :)

Enjoyed the view of the freeways and sneaky hide. The log is full and needs a new one. TNLN

Found this one while out getting some exercise with CA Girls. Nice view of the freeway and ever-encroaching urban development. Gotta love these perfect gated communities!

Found it with BuzzKill on our way out of the park. On our way to this cache, a Green Mickey Mouse head balloon fell out of the sky. BuzzKill thought I was nuts when I said I spotted it until we found the balloon lying on the ground on the way to the cache. Rather than head back the way we came, we did the classy thing and jumped the fence and went through the housing complex, balloon and all!

Easy find after a short up hill hike from the sports park. Need to do more of this hiking stuff. Nice view from GZ. Log a little damp. TFTC!
