Geocache Description:


Have you ever wished you could roll back the clock and see the giants that use to live in Florida's swamps many years ago. Well here's your opportunity. There's a small number of virgin cypress trees still living along Tootoosahatchee Creek. One of them is so big it would take 4 to 5 people to completely embrace it with their arms.

Choose your path wisely. There's no need to do any serious bushwhacking. A trail will take you very close to the cache site but you may encounter some obstacles along the way. Good luck!

Contents & Container:

First stage is a surprise. See hint if you need help. Second stage (the final) is an ammo box loaded with camping, hunting and fishing supplies.
