This area has intrigued me for some time; I knew there was a number of hiking & biking trails in addition to several roads that could be potential biking opportunities. I'm not near fit enough nor have the equipment for many of the mountain biking trails, so this hike had a couple of objectives: Get on the mountain!, hike some of the trails & roads first-hand to see what they were like, find geocaches, and enjoy the area naturally.
I'll be able to run my Trek dual-sport on the roads and gently down some of the trails, but have no aspirations of hitting the gnarlier trails, especially when climbing them.
I found 10 caches; a variety of traditionals, a virtual and a multi. It was a mostly natural day; I encountered nearly 20 people, 2 of those were cyclists. All in all, a very nice Monday... until I got back to my pickup. While one of the cache parking waypoints was my start/end, parking is not permitted, and I received a warning. Lesson learned, don't trust caching waypoints for parking! I checked several others, and they were accurate. I happened to choose the one that wasn't!
