Geocache Description:

Cache recently adopted and moved slightly.
Located on Hwy 21 South of Arcadia. Cachers beware this cache requires small amount of rock climbing.

I'll make this somewhat easier for those that may be intrested. Cache is located about 30-40 feet above the forest floor. The cache is a small ammo box covered by a couple smaller rocks to prevent it from being drug off by an animal and make it harder for muggles to stumble across it. When we adopted the cache we moved it to a spot that is easier to reach. (We decided that we just are NOT in shape to be climbing to the top of the rocks and maintain this where it was.) If we get feedback that it is preferred that it was back in the original spot we will do our best to get it back there. Easy access from the road about 300 feet away. Kids can make it to the base easy enough but should not climb the rocks. You may want to have 2 persons present so if one falls then the other can get the cache (humor). Really, please use extreme caution when climbing.

This cache was originally placed by WTMRN AKA, "the worlds greatest backwoods tracker". When he retired from caching he gave this cache to *gln to look after. It was being looked after by a group of cachers from the St. Louis Geocaching Assn. It was adopted by JonesCrew on Sept. 4th 2007. Many thanks to WTMRN and many others.
