Located just off the Parking Lot at Rickwood Caverns State Park, this small geocache should be a pretty easy find and bring a smile to your face. The park is open 8:00 am to dusk and charges $1 for entrance.
Experience the thrill of Rickwood's miracle mile of underground caverns! The 260 million-year-old limestone formations, blind cave fish and underground pool are just a few of the natural wonders exhibited in the colorful cavern. The park features an Olympic-size swimming pool, snack bar, picnic area, large and small picnic shelter, hiking trails, playground, campground and gift shop.

Rickwood Caverns is a recognized member of the National Caves Association, and offers more than a mile of living geology. The caverns themselves were water-formed during the Mississippian period over 260 million years ago. Rickwood Caverns still contains active "living formations," as mineral-laden water droplets build colorful structures and flowstones. Rickwood Cave reveals that it was carved from an ocean bed - shell fragments and fossils of marine life are clearly visible along the cavern ceiling and walls. Many curiosities are featured on guided tours of the "miracle mile" at Rickwood Caverns State Park.

You are looking for a medicine bottle that could hold some geocoins.

Not our easiest find of the day and not without injuries -- my dad managed to fall down the hill while carrying my 2 year old little brother -- but we made the find. Cool spot for hiding. Thanks!

I was starting to get discouraged by my 1st DNF in about 80 finds in a row and didn't want another! I kept looking and came across this one pretty quickly. GPSr was doing some bouncing, but looking and thinking about the name and there it was. Finally getting to the ones near my house! Beautiful Turkeyday weekend to be out cachin! TFTH & Happy Hunting.
