This cache is extremely under rated.  It's rated as a 1.5 for both
difficulty and terrain.  To anyone that has traveled the Old Apache Trail,
this is at least 5 times worse.  This is a 40 round trip even though the GPS
says the cache in only 12 miles away.  The road is extremely narrow and
rough.  To top that off the cache is a mile hike once and if you make it
down to the river.  You are also required to wade knee-deep through the
river to the other side.  Do not attempt this cache with a low clearance
vehicle.  4WD is not required but I'd highly recommend it.  Allow yourself
at least 3-4 hours to get this one.   I doubt we'll be trying this one again
anytime soon.
