Geocache Description:

Congrats to beans&franks for FTF

This cache is a 50 cal ammo can.
I've always lived rather close to this area. In fact I killed my first deer not 300 yards from where this cache is placed. This is my 1st attempt at placing a cache. I use to ride my bike up and down this power line splashing in the mud and the muck. The parking area is along Blackhawk road 100 yards below or 100 yards above (on the right) of the 4wheeler path(on left side) leading to the cache.both parking spots are waymarked on cache page. Now its a rough road to drive on if you have a low clearance vehicle at times. The cache is located before you get to the fourth tower close to the five-way path crossing. Please stay off the posted areas and watchout for the devils club trees they are plentiful near here. Enjoy the wildlife, deer and hawks are usually in the area and you can hear them over the buzzing of the power lines. There is a $10 Dollar Tree gift card to buy some swag with in the log book for the FTF. To the victor goes the spoils. All suggestions and tips are/would be appreciated.
