Geocache Description:

This is a night cache located in State Game Lands #208 on route 349. Please wear blaze orange during hunting season.

To find this cache, you will have to start after the sun sets. Park at the above coordinates and the trail head is here as well. You will be walking the trail that has the gate across it. You will see a sample of a reflective tack on the gate.

The cache is about .25 miles from the parking area.

You will need a flashlight or headlamp to find this cache. The tacks are only mostly visible from the flashlight holder's point of view.

During the day time, the tacks are brown and blend in with the trees. You won't be able to find it then.

The tacks are reflective and orange, and are about the size of a dime. You will be following these reflective tacks all the way to the location of the cache. The tacks are mostly on the left side of the trail, every 200 feet or so.

You will know you have reached the cache site when you see a horizontal line of tacks on a tree on the right side of the trail. You are about 60 feet away at this point. There is a circular clump of tacks on a tree on the left side of the trail -- this tree is directly across from the cache. So, the horizontal line means you're close, the clump means you're directly across from the cache. The cache is located only a few feet from the trail, on the right, and should be very easy to find. It is a 50 cal ammo can.

A special thanks to Raggedy Ann + Andy for giving me an ammo can for this cache!!
