Packsaddle Cave Hike

Packsaddle Cave is a two and a half mile hike up a somewhat steep hill. We would recommend to go on a sunny day in January or February, because in the summer it may get too hot. If you do go in the winter make sure to wear appropriate footwear, because as you get higher and deeper into the mountain, there is a bigger chance of snow and mud on the ground. Also make sure to wear clothing in layers, as you're going up and down hills and the temperature changes. Take a lot of flashlights and headlamps, if you have any and obviously a lot of H2O.

There are a lot of bushes and little branches, so make sure not to get smacked in the face by a lose branch. 

Don't slip, and dig your heels in.

If you fall do so, fabulously.

Big Foot also likes the cave. 

You have to cross the creek three times, there are two places where there was a small bridge made of logs, and the other one you have to find your own way across. The creek is not that wide, and it seems like it is mostly snow run off, so try not to fall in. 

In some areas it looks like the trail disappears, but if you continue forward you will most likely find the it again. There's also orange ties on branches to remind you that you're still on the trail. 

The sign that tells you where the cave is, is fallen down so you have to look for it. You'll come to a fork in the trail, take the left up the hill and you'll make it to the entrance of the caves. 

 This is the view from the entrance of the cave.

Don't miss the chance to leave your mark in history. 

Don't step on this, or you will fall straight into HELL!!! j/k
