From Ada With Love Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

bigdog421: I went out to check on this tree climber and found the tree to be in a widowmaker state so to speak. It is still alive...for now. Where there once was a second trunk to act as the first step up, there is now a hole with signs of insect activity that is potentially hollowing out this tree until it comes down naturally or with a push from say a climber. In the interest of cacher safety (and my own) I am archiving this cache. Thanks to all the climbers this one saw through the years. It has been pretty lonely the past few years, so hopefully this opens up a spot for a new cache for the community to experience.

How Geocaching Works

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

Geocache Description:

Very difficult tree to climb, but it is very possible. Best parking is at the given coords. Go under the road for safest passage from the parking coords. There's a bridge over Hebble Creek. I would prefer that each person "ring's the bell" and obviously get's their name on the scroll. ATTEMPT AT OWN RISK! TREE'S HEALTH CANNOT BE VERIFIED AT CURRENT TIME! CLIMB AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Cool hide, at least I think it is. This was going to be an area for a night hike along the creek, but it just didn't pan out. Because of the nearby private property, please avoid night caching. This cache is placed on public property, so cache with confidence. Feel free to bring kids along, but the tree may be a bit much for parents to trust their kids climbing. PLEASE REPLACE THE CACHE PROPERLY!!! Happy hunting!

Interesting note, the cache title is from the fact that I go to Ohio Northern in Ada and this cache is off of Ada Drive. The acronym of the title is FAWL...something I hope you DON'T do at the GZ!!!!!!
