+smilinglady13 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 One other cache further down the rough road from "Snail Rock," and not showing on the map, is Fred Canyon. Depending on what everyone decides to do after "Snail Rock," some might want to make that drive and hike, others might be ready to head back out the road to get the easy ones next to the highway on the way home, or try to get those Bear Valley ones off Buckman Springs road . . . if there is any daylight left. Pack as many into the day as we possibly can......Miragee you sound like you have a real good plan.......all day caching is just lovely!!!!! Maybe we can get into the top 1000 soon!!! NOW if I could just figure out how to get those darned caches into my new palm pilot......I finally figured out how to get the caches to the GSAK. Will have to go to another thread to ask questions......It amazes me how I can help put stents into the coronary arteries, do all the monitoring of many types and yet these little things just totally baffle me.......I am glad I am good at something (my day job ) It's easy! 1) Download Cachemate. 2) Using GSAK go to File/Export/Cachemate PDB File... 3) Synch your Palm to your PC 4) Open Cachemate and import to unfound items. That's it! We needed 4 more posts to get to the next page for Ahimsa anyhow! Thanks I will try this tomorrow when my brains are not circling the drain.......sleep sleep I need sleep........hopefully this will help Ahimsa in his quest for a new page Quote

+TrailGators Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 (edited) Weather Report for Saturday -- Mostly Cloudy I've cleaned up the map a bit. "Nobel Cache" is a little hike, as is "Big Tree Down" and "The Lion's Den." They are all off the Old Burma Road. Then there is "Thing Valley" on the way to "Snail Rock." In no particular order, there are others: "Moo" is easy and just off the road, as is "Vallecito Valley View." "Treasure Tree #6" is just off the road. "Boiling Springs" is a bit tricky, but the view of the sunset from there is fantastic. "Bug's Eye View" should probably be on the list, and maybe "High Above the Desert" as well. "Woodchuck Chips" is easy. "Where Am I" is a bit of a walk, but is a fun cache. "Valley View" way down at the edge of the map is a Pathfinder & Snoopy cache that is a short walk from parking. (Sure hope all those links are right . . . ) Meet at the Lake Jennings P&R this Saturday at 8AM... Be there, Aloha! Oh yeah...Book 'em Dan-oh! Edited November 29, 2005 by TrailGators Quote

+Miragee Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 We're baaaaack!!! We had a great time on Lawson 4. duganrm, Tigger's Mango, Gobolts!, Sonrisa, Princess Toadstool and I had a challenging hike. And . . . now I know where there is a White Jeep. My GPSr tried to commit suicide when I was standing on the edge of a huge boulder. It leaped out of my pack, bounced a few times, and disappeared into the chapparal far, far below. Amazingly, it was still working when we, even more amazingly, found it. It's maximum speed on the hike was 212 mph . . . It was great, great fun! Quote

+smilinglady13 Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 CHRISTMAS AT DEATH VALLEY I am going to Death Valley for Christmas Dec 24 to 26th. (too expensive to fly home, takes forever on plane and a century by vehicle for the 3 days) I am camping at Furnace Creek mixed area so just holler if you would like to come with. If you want your own spot they have a lot of reservations available at this point but i am told they fill the closer it gets to Christmas. Geocaching and exploring are the reasons I am going..........started in Oct but need to get more DV caches logged Quote

And, considering where I was, it is a good thing I didn't try to reach for it before it went over the edge . . . I will be forever indebted to Gobolts! for venturing into the chaparral and finding it, and for duganrm for calmly making the necessary visual observation of its likely landing location. Quote

+SD Rowdies Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 How close can you get to Snail Rock [via vehicle] from I8 on Kitchen Creek Rd? On La Posta/Thing Rd ? Chuy, The normal access would be from Sunset Highway to Morris Ranch Road. There's a dirt road that I followed to get within 0.1 mile from the cache. That was way back when Carpenter and I did the FTF. From where I finally parked one would walk east just a bit to hit the PCT and then go north on the PCT a short distance to the entry point into the Chamise thicket. The ladies built a rock cairn to mark the entry point into the thicket so there goes the neighborhood. Of course any other road such as Kitchen Creek Road will eventually get you there assuming that the road gates are open. Harmon Quote

Don't you think the group should do it the way P.T. and I did it . . . It is only .7 to Snail Rock from a "parking spot" on Thing Valley Road and it really is a nice walk with several scenic vistas along the trail. That is near the trail we have to take up to "Thing Valley" anyway . . . Quote

Harmon The Forest Service website indicates there is no access between I8 and Sunrise off Kitchen Creek and La Postal/Thing. I'm trying to decide whether its worth riding my bike up from the south so can I get some remaining caches down there as I have most on Laguna Mtn. "Kitchen Creek Road: Open from Sunrise Highway south to the midpoint gate which is locked. Closed from midpoint south to Cibbetts Flat Campground. The campground may be accessed from I-8 on Kitchen Creek Rd." Where exactly is this gate? On Fred Canyon Rd? "Thing Valley Road is closed to north bound traffic at junction of Thing Valley Road and Fred Canyon Road" This gate appears to be 1.4 miles from Snail Rock. How would the ascent be from the gate?

"Thing Valley Road is closed to north bound traffic at junction of Thing Valley Road and Fred Canyon Road" This gate appears to be 1.4 miles from Snail Rock. How would the ascent be from the gate? Chuy, Just beyond the entrance to Cibbett's Flat campground Thing Valley Road does a one-eighty to come back south around the ridge above the campground and then turns one-eighty northward once again. That road gate you mentioned is just after the first one-eighty turn. It's the gate I've mentioned recently that resembles the new gate up on Bear Valley Road only smaller. If you turn into Cibbet's Flat and procede eastward beyond the camp you will climb a decent dirt road, Fred Canyon Road I should think, for a short distance and then encounter the PCT and a large parking area right at the PCT. It's also possible to encounter a locked gate along that section of road. My recollection is, unless something has changed, that there are two caches along the PCT southward from the parking area in question back toward Kitchen Creek Road. The first one is quite close to the parking area but was never well hidden so may not be there now. As to Fred Canyon Road, best bet is that the northernmost gate will be locked and trying to bypass that gate isn't a good idea as one can see from the van that's been stuck in the creek near the gate for many years now. Hiking the PCT from the parking area to Snail Rock isn't all that bad, nothing like the grades that head down into the desert from the mountains. You INS guys will see it as a walk in the park. It's great that you will be coming in from the south because you will be there just in time to recover the bodies of the northern group. If one or two of them survive then please mention to them that I told 'em so. Harmon Edited December 2, 2005 by SD Rowdies Quote

+princess toadstool Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 How close can you get to Snail Rock [via vehicle] from I8 on Kitchen Creek Rd? On La Posta/Thing Rd ? There is a gate at Fred Canyon Road that was closed on Thing Valley Road when we drove in from the north. If you take Thing Valley road to the junction of Morris Ranch Road (to the right as you head south), Morris Ranch curves slightly northwest then turns south again to get you very close to Snail Rock (within .10 mi?). However, you WILL need a high-clearance 4-Wheel drive vehicle in this section of Morris Ranch road as it has been washed out and as some very deep ruts from the storms last winter. Morris Ranch Road is blocked as private property if you try and access it from Sunrise Highway going past the observatory. Miragee and I checked all this out the day prior to our Snail Rock adventure. Miragee's plan to walk the 0.7 along the PCT is the best plan. The trial is very level with little elevation change and with the group gabbing you'll be at Snail Rock in no time to enjoy the fun Note that Google Earth had the roads named differently than MapSource (I'm using MapSource reference for the roads) Quote
