Reviewer Revan: Cache Owner (CO) has not responded, so I am regretfully archiving this cache to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking new cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace this cache sometime in the future (not to exceed 10 days from the date of this entry), just contact me (by e-mail), and assuming it still meets the current Guidelines, I will consider unarchiving this cache.

Please be advised this is not a guarantee that this geocache will be unarchived. Many factors will go into my decision. The most important of which is how you responded to geocachers who tried to communicate with you regarding the problem(s) with this geocache hide and how you communicated with me, the Reviewer Revan.

Geocache Description:

This cache is located near the"Native Village Quarry", on the West side of beautiful Eaton Hill Preserve in Sonora, TX. The trail is a little rocky at the end - but worth the walk for the views alone! Fossils and great wildlife seen along the way. Treasures may be found!

Eaton Hill Preserve is full of historical & geological sites, exposed fossils, primitive habitats - and is a popular Wildlife viewing destination. Infamous outlaws are said to have hidden out on this hill overlooking downtown around 1890-1905, thus the name "Outlaw Camp" for the cache. Native Americans of Central Texas lived on the hills in and around Sonora as well for several centuries, some interpretive displays for that period are in evidence on the Hill as well. Start at the new Eaton Hill Nature Center at the top of City Hill Road to access the trails, get history on the area and enjoy the nature & history museum. Find out about new caches there too. Happy caching!!
