CCCNP #6 - The Pancake Boulders Mystery Cache

CCCNP – The Pancake Boulders

 THE CACHE IS AT THE COORDINATES LISTED UNDER ADDITIONAL WAYPOINTS. I am planning to archive this series and replace each cache. Until I do that this spring, the caches will remain as they are except that the actual coordinates for each cache will be posted as an additional waypoint.

The actual coordinates for this cache are also in the cache container for CCCNP - The Bottleneck Cache.

The CCCNP series contains 8 caches which must be found in order. The only one of the 8 that is at the posted coordinates is the first one, Cane Creek Canyon Nature Preserve.  

The CCCNP Series:

1. Cane Creek Canyon Nature Preserve

2. CCCNP - The Waterfall

3. CCCNP - The Tree Fern Cave

4. CCCNP - The Nars' (Narrows)

5. CCCNP - The Bottleneck Cache

6. CCCNP - The Pancake Boulders

7. CCCNP - The Sedum Boulders

8. CCCNP - The Balancing Boulders

CCCNP – The Pancake Boulders

Millions of years ago, parts of Alabama were covered by vast oceans. As the ocean edges lapped upon the ancient shores, layers of sandy silt were laid down, layer upon layer forming the interesting “pancake” boulders that you will see at this location. The cache is less than 100 feet from the small sign pointing to the Pancake Boulders. PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO BUSHWHACK FROM THIS CACHE TO THE SEDUM BOULDERS. FOLLOW THE TRAIL AROUND UNTIL YOU ARE WITHIN 120 FEET OF THE SEDUM BOULDERS. I promise that you will reach the Sedum Boulders much faster and safer if you follow the trail.

This cache is a small lock-n-lock container containing a few trinkets, the log, and the coordinates for CCCNP - The Sedum Boulders .

Do not log this cache as a team find unless the team is a family unit registered only as a family unit. If the individual members of the team are geocaching.com members then each member of the team must sign the log individually. It is not fair to the geocachers that hike up to 10 or 12 miles round trip to find the caches in the Preserve to have “team” members log a find without actually going to the cache site.  Log entries not meeting these requirements will be deleted.
