Important Notice
Several groups/people indicated that the GPS
coordinates take them a little up/beyond the
cache location. Please remember the image below.
The cache is located behind the large pile of rocks near the catus.
Since the cache is near a Romero Trail, it is placed
at the base of a small tree
that is behind the large rock in the photo below. The
two cans are in a large black plastic trash bag.
Information about Catalina State Park
Vistors heading to southern AZ can enjoy this park, at the base of
Mt.Lemmon and the Santa Catalina Mountains.
At Catalina, there is something from everyone, from camping under the
desert skies, to hiking through canyons
and streams, to picnicking and bird watching. And NOW, there is a
Romero Trail Cache for you to find.
Direction to the Catalina State Park from Interstate 10
From I10 West or East, exit Ina Road. Take Ina Road east to Oracle
Road (about 7-9 miles),
Go North on Oracle Road (left) and drive about 3-4 miles to the
