Twlight Tunnel (multi-cache) Multi-cache

This cache has been archived.

geohiker70: It's a shame to archive this 5/5 cache. I have so tired of the bureaucracy that geocaching has become. The final is still inside the twilight tunnel, extremely difficult to find. The final container is a fake rock and is hidden on a ledge close to the end of the tunnel. If your in the right spot, you can look up and see daylight. Good bye geocaching.com this was a lot of fun 10+ years ago.

Geocache Description:

The log hidden at the 1st stage (listed coordinates) is NOT THE ACTUAL CACHE. It's a bison tube containing a hint to the final. PLEASE, do not sign this log.
Make sure to bring a flashlight with you for the final; without it, the difficulty rating could easily be a 5+.

4-4-09 Changing the difficulty to a 5. Good luck!!

Welcome to Hurricane Creek Park/William "Buddy" Rodgers Natural Area.

Hurricane Creek Park is a 67+ acre natural area, nestled in a 500 foot deep canyon in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. The park was founded in 1961 by the late William "Buddy" Rogers. He ran the park as a day-hike/picnic area for forty years. In 2003 he donated his beloved park to the State of Alabama Wildlife and Fisheries. The park is now managed by the City of Cullman Parks and Recreation.

The park features miles of established hiking trails, waterfalls, a picnic area with covered pavilion, mountain bike trails, and rock climbing for the seasoned climber. Hurricane Creek Park has been added as a stop on the North Alabama Birding Trail and is host to many species of birds. At the head of the trail system you can find a climbing wall set up on the deck of the office/concession area/pro shop.
