Geocache Description:




This is one several caches I've placed along the Kaydeross Creek between route 9 and where it empties into Saratoga Lake..   The purpose of these caches is to get you out on the creek with your kayak or canoe.  Bigger boats may pass through the creek in high water providing the huge log jam near the mouth of the creek breaks up..  All are accessible from the water, can be found and logged without leaving your boat.   There are numerous launch points along the creek so you can do as few or as many of the series as you chose.

Listed here are all the parking/launch points I know of on the Kaydeross between route 9 and Saratoga Lake.   These will be listed as parking  waypoints but to avoid repeated points in gpx files I'm only entering each parking area once which will be on the closed cache to it.  

Driscoll Rd.   N43 02.178 W73 47.609
Route 9   N43 01.751 W73 47.449
Kaydeross E  N43 02.667 W73 46.197
Arrowhead Rd.  N43 02.506 W73 44.432


Caches in this series are all micros (bison tubes and matchstick containers) with a waterproof logs.  The logs are made of waterproof paper which pencils will not write on so be sure to bring a pen.

With all the twist, turns and switchbacks the Kaydeross makes this long straight section seems out of place.
