Geocache Description:

2.5 miles south of exit 32 on interstate 94 in the badlands.

Get off the highway and experience the badlands up close and personal. This canyon was a forest 60 million years ago. Today it is filled with the petrified stumps of some very large cedar and cypress trees. I have even found petrified palm logs here. The ground is littered with pieces of petrified wood. In this area I have seen rabbits, mule deer, big horn sheep and a mountain lion. This is my favorite spot on earth for exploring and now I share it with you.

The cache is in a flat Tupperware container and originally had:

Pink Clefable
Butte diamond
Grand Daughter’s beads TB
Navy seal action figure
Candle
Stevenson Funeral Home letter opener
Log book and pencil
