Geocache Description:

This cache will take you to the end of Kings Rd on the far side of Grand Lake. From there you will have to pick a route to the far side of Sleepy Cove.

The above coords are for parking and not the cache location!
To find the coords for the cache location you will have to access this website (and]visit link) download the file Sleepy Cove.wav.

***PLEASE NOTE MY GOLF TEAM WEBSITE IS UNAVAILABLE FOR NOW!!!
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN DOING THIS CACHE E-MAIL US AND WE WILL SEND YOU THE REQUIRED FILE!!! ***

The coords are in this file its up to you to find them. Once you find the coords and are on your way along Kings Rd keep a very sharp eye out for a sign that reads BROWNS LANDING ESTABLISHED IN ????. When you reach the Sleepy Cove cache you will find coords to a bonus Micro cache The Two Old Crows. You will need to take the numbers from the Browns Landing sign divide them by 1000 and add the result to the coords for the Micro cache. The FTF prize for the Sleepy Cove cache is an unregistered MICRO GEOCOIN and will be waiting in the Micro cache which I have called Two Old Crows. Upon reaching the parking spot there are several routes to the cache.
1 Take a boat or canoe
2 Follow the lake shore
3 Walk on the ice if it is frozen and safe[always check the ice and be extra careful near the brook mouths].
4 Follow the obscure trail through the thicket[the bushwack route which I used] I will leave some marker tape to help highlight the trail.

PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THE LAND OWNERS SIGNS. THEY ALLOW THE PUBLIC USE OF THEIR LAND BUT ASK YOU TO BEWARE AS THEY OFTEN PLAY PAINTBALL WARS IN ONE AREA ON SUNDAYS.

The above sign is no longer in place!
The old parking coords are now a new home!!
The paint ball games no longer take place here!!!
New parking coords are 44 53.958 063 37.703.
I have updated terrain and difficulty as you will have a longer hike now and you will have to walk the lake shore to avoid private property. If you are not comfortable doing this then I suggest a boat or wait till the ice is safe.
On my way out from the cache[while on a maintenance trip]I ran into the new property owner and it happens to be my family doctor. A small world it is!!! He says he wouldn't mind people parking there but I would like you to use the new parking spot. He won't mind if you walk the lakeshore in front of his home!!! He also says he will most likely be getting himself a GPSr and joining in on the fun.

The cache container is a lock n lock dressed in cammo tape!
