Cache is located in Wyalusing State Park in Wisconsin.
This cache is located near the Picture Rock Cave of Wyalusing State Park. This area is quite a nice area near the Mississippi River. Its a nice wooded area with many trails for hiking. (Currently, many of these trails are closed due to problems from recent flooding.
The Picture Rock Cave has a small creek running through it. According to the kiosk, the Native Americans used this area to protect themselves from the elements over the winters. There used to be some writings in the rock from long ago, unfortunately, the writings have been covered by "more recent visitors".
Wyalusing Park has quite a bit to offer their visitors. There are many trails for hiking and many, many spectacular views. I can recommend a visit to some of the many lookout points along the ridge. The park also has a few effigy mounds in the park as well.
After reading through the logs and other comments the best way to get to the cache is to park at N42 58.460 W91 07.579 which is near the Homestead Picnic Area. Then go into the woods straight to the cache. From there find the trail to the cave, its a must see. Also since this was originally published, the cave itself has been turned into an earth cache. So you get two finds in one!
Although, this area is closed to hunting, the park does allow hunting within its boundaries.
The Geocache Notification Form has been submitted to Wyalusing State Park Superintendent of the Wisconsin DNR at the Wyalusing State Park office.
