Edmount Island Cache Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Rock Rabbit: The Washington Review Team has given a lot of latitude to this cache's lengthy unavailability because of the unique circumstances and the hope that it would once again be available. It has been nearly 5 years since this cache has been found and it doesn't look like caching on the island will be allowed anytime soon - possibly never again. All of these things indicate that this cache listing has outlived it's life span. Edmount Island Cache had a good run, but it is time to let it go and rest in peace.

Thank you for your understanding.

Geocache Description:

Edmount Island Cache is located in the Middle of Lake Ballinger in Edmonds area of South Snohomish County. Access is by boat or walking on water only.

The Edmount Island Cache is one of two caches placed on Edmount Island within a few days of each other. The second cache is Goose Island (GCFE37). Access to the two caches must be made from different entrance points because of the THICK overgrowth. If you want to go overland between the two caches, you'll want to wear chain-mail and carry a big machete.

This cache is a small ammo box filled with all kinds of goodies.

There are only a few places to land on the Island. The best access is on the northwest side of the Island. GPS signals are spotty in the trees, but the cache is quite easy to find once you get on the trail.

We made this pretty easy considering the effort it takes to get the island in the first place.
