Geocache Description:

Eagle Iron is the second fingerling to make its way from the Spawner cache. See the description of the cache for a explanation of the entire Spawner process.

The Fingerling migrated downstream from its home redd on Spring Creek to a new home near a local historical site on Bald Eagle Creek. The cache is still small, but will grow up fast.

This is not the prettiest of locations, but it does offer a great opportunity to cache-in/trash-out. Once the Fingerling grows up a bit, some assistance will be provided via trash bags left in his home (cache container). Until then, please bring your own trash bags.

While you are there, a visit to the local historical site is highly recommended. Find out what really led to the growth and expansion of this area. No, it wasn't Penn State University! Keep in mind, the official tour for this historical site is only open in the summer months. Below are a few links you may want to check out before you go.
