Located in Hannibal's Riverview Park
This cache is a replacement for the "Jesus Cache" which went AWOL a while back.

If you see a Coca Cola van parked near the cache site, it's probably me. I come here often to check my work e-mail. Come say hi!

Park at the trail head @ N 39* 43.503 W 91* 22.388 and follow the trail down the hill (this is a paved trail) but, you will need to leave the path at some point. Or if you'd like a slightly shorter and more challenging walk, drive on down the road a short ways and park near the scenic view and take the dirt trail that begins near N 39* 43.672 W 91* 22.295

I've rated the terrain a 3.5 mostly because of the more than 130 ft. elevation change but it's not particularly dangerous. However, you can quickly turn this into a 4 or 4.5 terrain if you don't carefully choose your entry point into the woods.

I took new coords today, 4/1/05 with my new 60cs and averaged the location with a sample size of over 300 readings. Satellite reception is not very good so, some searching may still be required. The original coords were N39* 43.680 W91* 22.419 if you want to give them a try. You will not need to cross the creek.

Have fun & God bless! Believer

Wet leaves and steep inclines are not a good combination. Took two spills even though I was moving gingerly down the hill. The first one sent my Garmin farther down the hill than I wanted to go. The second was scrambling back up to GZ.
SL TFTC! Took: Nothing, Left: 1 Bruised Ego!
