A Rite of Passage marks an event or a time when a person
reaches a new and significant change in his or her life. Nearly all
societies recognize a rite of passage and often hold ceremonies
that commemorate the event. These ceremonies are held to observe a
person's entry into a new stage of life and might be a birthday
party, a high school graduation, or finding a geocache which
requires SIGNIFICANT bushwhacking.
This is a two stage multi-cache. The first stage provides the
coordinates to the final. The final cache is a standard, green
Decon container.
To reach the final cache requires slightly over 1/4 mile of
heavy bushwhacking through undeveloped brush and swampland. You
will encounter lizards, spiders, ticks, chiggers, poison ivy,
thorns, and possibly a snake or two. You WILL get wet. There are NO
trails leading to the cache. Be sure to mark your starting point
because even if you create a trail heading to the cache, it will be
overgrown by the time you are ready to return.
WARNING: This cache hunt should NOT be attempted without proper
attire and plenty of water during the summer months. Be prepared
for anything and everything. Do NOT attempt this cache if you are
an inexperienced hiker. Do NOT attempt this cache if you have any
family that will miss you OR if you love life OR have the slightest
bit of common sense!
The ONLY LAWFUL entry to the location of the final cache is
from Parkway Road at the parking coordinates listed below.
