Big Falls Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

QuartzCachers: It is always difficult to make the decision to archive one of your favorite caches in one of your favorite spots. I tried to maintain an ammo can cache here, and did for ten years or so. However, with this caches propensity to walk away, even with the note clearly stating what it is, I have no choice but to open this spot up to a more local cacher. It’s just too hard to maintain this one from 400 miles away.

Geocache Description:

An ammo can hidden above the large set of falls on Falls Branch.

This is the crown jewel of this trail! This ammo can is hidden a with a little more difficulty than the others, above the large falls, on the Falls Branch trail. The day I came out here to scout these out, there had been a heavy rainfall the night before. The waterfall was thundering! It was spectacular to the point of awe. If you are lucky enough to catch it at this time, notice the small streams of water running off the mountain. These will have a higher drop than the main body of the stream, and just add to the overall picture! I hope that all who come here, enjoy the falls as much as I did!
Remember to watch out for critters and trifoliate, and PLEASE rehide this one at least as well as you found it! There are a lot more muggles around here than you might imagine!
This cache has Lake Catherine State Park geocache permit # 2008-J.
