X marks the spot! Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Surfer Joe: Barnabee,

If you can fix or verify that this cache is still in place it can be easily unarchived provided the location is still available and still meets the cache hiding guidelines. For now I am going to archive it. Feel free to contact me through my profile linked below if you fix it.

NOTE: If you have any questions, do not reply directly to this email. Instead, send me an email via my geocaching.com profile. Please include a link to the cache in question so I will know which cache it is regarding.

Thanks for your understanding,

Geocache Description:

X quite clearly marks the spot...but which x?

* This cache may not be for everyone as stated by the FTF* It certainly is a challenge, but I scoped the area and placed the cache in church clothes. Use common sense for safety and abort if you feel unsafe. Everyday playground skills should be enough to get you by. This cache is located on the Red Jacket Trail a Rails to trails project. The cache can be accessed from 4 angles. Follow Hwy 66 out of Mankato and look for a minimum maintenance road on the left OR use the trail system on bike, foot or blades. The final approach is from Rasmussen Woods, a 150 acre park with floating sidewalks (depending on the weather). The latter is the recommended route, you get to explore some beautiful terrain right in Mankato. The Hwy 66 and minimum maintenance road route could nearly be a park and grab. Be cautious of people recreating as you could drive right onto the trail without even knowing it! This is my first hide, so any input is appreciated. Enjoy!
