Goat's Head Cave is located within Indian Grass Prairie Preserve, which is a great place for a hike. I didn't find it but maybe you will after finding this box.

Directions:
From TX 1 go east on William Cannon Dr about 0.5 mile then turn left on Brodie Ln. Go a little over 1 mile and turn right on Ernest Robles Way 0.5 mile to Jones Rd. Turn right and go 0.2 mile to Sunset Valley City Hall on right and park in back near garden and trail head for Cougar Creek Greenbelt.

Clues:
Walk on trail past garden and chimney swift towers to Y jct. Go right and continue on elevated trail as it bends to the left behind a subdivision then descends and comes to a paved path. Go left as it changes to gravel and bears right at a bridge. Continue across bridge and then a road into Sunset Valley Nature Area. Go right at Y jct soon after this and continue as trail bends left and follows Brodie Ln on right to underpass. At far side go right through it and bear right on other side as trail goes back along other side of Brodie Ln then bends left into Indian Grass Prairie Preserve. At jct where trail goes right into open area you keep going straight to next jct. Go right 20 steps into trees then right off trail 15 steps to double-trunk oak tree. Letterbox is at back base under rocks.
