Operation: Enjoying Freedom Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Nomex: Hi Bill of Green Achers,

At the risk of being assassinated on a certain train ride coming up [;)]......

As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm temporarily archiving this to keep it from continually showing up in search lists. Just contact us when you have the cache repaired, [RED]and assuming it still meets the guidelines[/RED], we'll be happy to unarchive it.

You may email me at via the link to my profile on the log. [red]Please be sure to include the cache name and GCxxxx number, or better yet, the URL of the cache page.[/red]

Thanks for your cooperation!

How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

New Hogan lake is our favorite. There's plenty of area to ski, fish, swim, hike and camp. This cache was placed to show you a popular swimming area and an incredible cliff diving area! Another privilege of living in America is being able to enjoy your freedom.

You can either park East of the lake and hike in or launch your boat and pull a skier over to it.

Once you get to the hunting area, you'll find many possible locations. Because this area is well visited, I have hidden the cache better than otherwise would be required. You don't need to worry about others seeing you as they won't have a clue to what you're doing.

The cache is not visible but it's in the most obvious place. When stashed, the tackle box cache contained:
Geo-Note
Logbook
Pencil
Cool Shades
North Carolina State Quarter
Mississippi State Quarter
2 Kids Bracelets
Kings Ring
'tenna Topper - Hot Dog
Night Light (Auto on/off)
Tooth from the T-Fairy

Don't forget to hunt the other cache that's near this one.

NOTICE: The cache is not located near any poison oak. You should not have go into any to get to the cache either. However, this area is both Rattle Snake and Poison Oak Country. Please learn what each look like and be aware.
