Geocache Description:

Hidden above the upper waterfalls. Not recommended during rainy season.

My parents came from the U.S. to visit me in Mali. I hid this cache for my father, JPlus14 to find while he is here.

Turn off the main road going south out of Sikasso at N 10 47.403 W 005 36.642. Follow the dirt road through a small village. After crossing a bridge, turn left at N 10 45.715 W 005 34.520. Park at N 10 46.661 W 005 34.076.

A trail begins at N 10 46.665 W 005 34.056. The trail is hard to follow and may require some bushwacking until you reach the main trail at N 10 46.810 W 005 34.032.

Follow the main trail to the lower waterfalls at N 10 46.966 W 005 33.712. This is a beautiful water falls with a place to swim or to eat a picnic lunch.

Backtrack a little from the lower falls until you can find a place to climb up the hill on your left. Follow the ridge line back to the top of the lower falls. Find a safe place to cross the stream. During dry season you can step across the stream without getting wet.

Then follow the dirt trail to the upper falls at N 10 46.839 W 005 33.594.

Climb the rocks to the left side to find the cache location. The container is Lock n' Lock container hidden above the upper water falls.

Please rehide so that the container can not be seen by others passing by.
