A great hike in the Sandia Foothills National Forest, with only
gentle inclines and no bouldering.
The cache is a large sized ammo box full of kids books, so bring
one to trade! Do not park on Big Horn Ridge Rd! A local resident
objects to anyone parking on this road and leaves nasty notes on
cars parked there. A car was even "keyed!" You may park at the TRAM
($1 fee). From the southeast corner of the tram parking lot, find
the sign for the Elena Gallegos Trail # 365 and hike southward to
the intersection of the trail that takes you westward to the cache.
This option also puts you near several other caches and we rate
this option as a "2/2" hike. Yet another option is to park at Elena
Gallegos Park (fee area), at N35 09.958 W106 28.392 (ie. Kiwanis
Group Area). Take the trail #365 northward to the same intersection
of the trail heading westward (from off of #365) to the cache. We
rate this option as a "2.5/2.5" because it's a longer hike (though
this hike also takes you to other caches of ours). NOTE: Check out
