Racing for the Cache Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

wildthings: Finally made it out to check on this cache. Since it is really to far for me to maintain it properly I am going to archive it. I will move it to a new location with hopefully the same theme. This is a great area, but for this container it is pretty hard to conceal. It was out in the open, again. A non-geocacher had signed the log. Luckily no one has taken off with it. I would be really cool if someone would place a new cache in the area to go along with "Giddy-up" cache.

Geocache Description:

There are many trails in this park. It has an area for people to camp and bring their horses and ride the trails that are well marked and well used "watch where you step". You can park near N41 24.143 W093 05.138 that is about .25 miles from the cache. The cache is located about 40 ft. from the trail. You can follow the trail for an easy walk albeit a little sandy and a little hilly (but not bad), or do a little bushwacking and shorten the distance a bit.

This is our first Cache hide. It is a 1 gallon Rubbermaid container. This is a busy park on the weekends with all of the campers and horses. I used to come here 20+ years ago before it was used as much as it is now. Back then it didn't have the trails that it has now. There are some great views of Lake Red Rock from near the cache. I wanted to do a Racing themed cache because it is close to Knoxville Raceway "The Sprint Car Capital of the World" The cache contains mostly Sprint Car and NASCAR related items but it welcomes all kinds of racing BE CREATIVE!!! I loaded it up with some neat items to start with. Be sure and take your picture and post what picture you took. This park is full of deer and because of that the park is closed October 1st - November 30 "some years" for a special antlerless deer bow hunting season. (It will be closed in 2004 to allow 50 hunters in) Other than that no hunting is allowed in the park.
