Geocache Description:

A camo decon container hidden along the creek trail (such as it is) up from the SA02 gate to Sierra Azul.

Wear good shoes for this cache as the trail narrows in places to deer-trail width on some slopes and you may do a little rock-hopping in the streambed. There are nice places to stop and relax here along the stream, some good ones are just a little past here

I had originally gone about 1,000' futher upstream to place an ammo can but I didn't want to entice anyone to go past here that maybe shouldn't or might feel uncomfortable with doing that. If you're confident of your ability to head up the streambed you can do so just for the fun of it. I did and it's quite pretty as these places often are, with some cool rock formations and some unique fungus on some of the logs. I love hikes like this. The risk of getting hurt is there though, particularly if the rocks are wet from rain, and there's no chance of cellphone reception here so I don't recommend that you go alone if you do decide to go on.

I had a tough time with reception and a poor satellite configuration so the coords may be off a little due to the 25' EPE I had when averaging. If you get some solid coords feel free to post them.
