Geocache Description:

You are looking for a small quart sized camo painted plastic container with screwtop lid.
Trail begins at the parking lot. The hiker can go either way along the lake shore trail.

Keokee Lake Trail

This hidden jewel of the Clinch Ranger District features a picturesque 92-acre lake with secluded coves surrounded by marsh grasses and hardwood forests of red oaks, white oaks, and hickories. With no gasoline-powered motors allowed, the lake attracts only those who enjoy quietly probing the shoreline by canoe or casting from a john boat for largemouth bass and sunfish around the dead trees emerging from the shallows. Early and late in the day, a raccoon, muskrat, or fox may come for a drink at the lake's edge. The lake can also be explored by foot on the encircling trail.

Hike to cache is .7mi and will take approximately 20minutes. Elevation: 2238 ft.,
Keokee Lake is located just west of the Town of Appalachia. The site contains two trails that surround Keokee Lake, the Keokee Loop Trail (3.7 miles) and the Olinger Gap Trail (2.5 miles). The Olinger Gap Trail connects the Keokee Loop Trail to the Stone Mountain Trail, which runs along the ridge of Stone Mountain between Roaring Branch and Cave Springs Recreation Area-about 14 miles. All three trails lead through dense woodlands.
