Located somewhat further from the bridge, Upper Cache is a little more “private” than nearby Lower Cache Creek Beach, which is downstream and described above.Tip: hike up the creek from Lower Cache for several minutes until you come upon some skinny-dippers.

Legal status:

Private property marked with “Do Not Trespass” signs.

How to find it:

Follow directions to Lower Cache Creek (see above), but walk a short distance upstream to the clothing-optional area. The beach usually draws fewer visitors than Lower Cache.

The beach:

Usually has a little less sand than Lower Cache.

The crowd:

Nudity evaporates on weekends, but a few skinny-dippers visit on weekdays. If you come during the week, it’s likely you’ll be the only person present.

Problems:

Not much weekend nude use; less sand than at Lower Cache; Do Not Trespass signs; visits by police.
