Geocache Description:

Full size cache hidden at local "speleo" site.

OK people, please don't steal my cache!! My original Speleo Cache was muggled, then Speleo 2.0 was muggled!!! My original container for Speleo was found up on top of the hill a long way from it's original location almost an entire year after being muggled so I am using it and the original log from Speleo for this cache but I have moved the cache from all the muggle activity with hopes it doesn't disappear again. There will be no need to go into the cave unless you desire to do so, but to me duck walking into the cave, avoiding the bats, snakes, camel crickets, and albino fish was kind of fun!!! PLEASE be sure to rehide the cache very well as there are lots of muggles that "play" around this area.

This cache is hidden at a local tourist attraction for the area that has been visited frequently by local and out of state visitors since the 1800's. This area was originally owned by the George Washington Baugus family which moved to Decatur County in 1890 and built a large two-story 12 room house. There were 12 children in the Baugus family, 6 boys and 6 girls. The house was built on their 800 acres of land near Jeanette and extended to the Tennessee river. This tourist attraction contained a cold spring where the Baugus family would keep milk, vegtables and other foods before the days of refrigeration. In 1964, the Baugus mansion was completely destroyed by fire. Please be careful and respect the beauty of this location. Thanks for the hunt and good luck.

The cache is a full size ammo can stocked with swag and is hidden within view of the cave area, but not inside the cave!!! Have fun!!
