Geocache Description:

Bring a camera. The photo ops are way above average. Post your pix.

This cache replaces The Ugly Duckling, now archived. Check it out for the photos. A popular spot so please be discreet... stealthy even, especially during summer camp season.

This cache is located on the Mountain Campus of Berry College near landmarks familiar to alumni and visitors from around the world. If you need directions just ask a gate guard, campus cop or a student. Approach from the parking coordinates and you will find the trail easily.

The surrounding area is a scenic wonder. Imagine swans gliding across the mirror surface of a small lake. Under the shade of cypress trees white ducks are walking along the edge of a small waterfall, plucking morsels from the stream as it tumbles from one quiet pool into another. On the hilltop is a rustic chapel of surpassing beauty, fashioned of native stone. And, less than a mile to the west you can visit The Old Mill, constructed by students in 1930. It's the world's largest overshot waterwheel, still serving its millstone and more than capable of producing fresh corn meal from the fruits of the campus fields.

Berry's combined lands include more than 28,000 acres of mountain, forest and farm, in addition to a modern college campus. Indulge yourself in some quiet exploration. Watch for deer, wild turkey and fox, along with the horses and cattle. Oh, and Berry is a great school, too. It is consistently ranked among the top small colleges in America. Dr_GloPos is proud to be an alumnus.

Enough prose... Enjoy the cache!

"I pray that I may leave the world more beautiful than I found it."
