Bear Bench Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Wis Kid: As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Geocache Description:


Welcome to Bjornson! Parking is available at: N44 55.829 W092 04.850 Please do not block the gate.

This cache features the bears' playground. There's plenty of berries and bear scat. Be aware of your surroundings while hunting this cache. If you have a dog, please keep it near you. Also, there are several large trees that have all the grass trampled down around them. Bears? My guess is yes. I looked for scratches on the trees, but couldn't see any. I choose a spot where you can sit and hopefully the bears will leave the cache (and you) alone.

You are hunting a (6" x 4" x 3") lock n'lock container.

The bugs are out in force so bring plenty of bug spray. Drinking water is available at the classroom and in the campground. Both pumps work and the water is great! You can also drink the water from the springs! Pit toilets are unlocked but I'd recommend you bring your own toilet paper.

Want a trail map? I've added a photo of the trail map to "Bjornson - Welcome Cachers".
