Geocache Description:


This is one of a series of caches located in Haw Ridge Park -- a geocaching park. The caches are maintained by the Friends of Haw Ridge Park in cooperation with the City of Oak Ridge Recreations & Parks. The park terrain is wooded and hilly, and the trails rough. You'll need water, trail map, and hiking shoes. The trails can also be ridden by experienced mountain bikers. The park is accessible by canoe and sea kayak as well. It can be hot and humid in the summer. Fall colors abound in late October, and wild flowers in mid April. The park is closed three weekends each fall for deer hunts.

The caches are near the various trails that run through the park, so no bushwhacking is required or desired. Use one of the trail maps available at the Haw Ridge trails page to plan and guide your search. For other caches in the park click on "Nearby caches" or visit the Haw Ridge caches page for an overview of the cache locations and top geocachers.

The 1993 tornado blew this tall critter across the trail west of the creek, though in 2012 there is not much left of the tree.
