Geocache Description:


On the Twelfth Day of Cachemas Pofe released to me,


  • 12 Glowing Icicles
  • 11 Slithery Snakes
  • 10 Miles of View
  • 9 Sig Items
  • 8 Mushrooms Sprouting
  • 7 First a Finding

  • 3 Bottles of Jack
  • 2 Pickled Ferries
  • and A stocking up a Tree

A Night Cache and a tough one at that. Maybe the Grinch is rubbing off on me but this one is un-necessarily long and challenging including a heart pumping climb up a steep hill. The hike is a mile loop. I strongly recommend you find this in small groups – individuals will face extra challenges hunting this alone. Wait until it is completely dark until you set out to find this cache.

Be sure to read and follow the cache page instructions. There is lot's of improtant information there.

At the posted coordinates you will find a “glint” trail that will lead you in the general direction of the cache. This cache has all kinds of glints. Square ones lead to the cache, round ones lead away. Red ones - you will have to figure out what to do with those. You will know when you are near the cache. At some point you will have a tremendous urge to bushwack - don't... it is much easier to follow the glints to the cache. As you hike up the hill you will see a triangle of circle glints. Take this oppertunity for a short detour to a great view. After you find the cache follow the Round ones back to parking so you don't have to slip and slide down the big hill while others are comming up behind you.

Please be careful with the elements of the cache – don’t let them get wet. You will find everything you need at the base of the obvious tree under rock or wood tough you may have to dig in the snow for it.

This is the twelfth in the series of caches celebrating “The Twelve Days of CACHEMAS”. For each of the 12 days a new cache is released. In addition to the winter friendly fun each cache contains a clue to the coordinates for a final prize cache where we have placed a special gift for you. All the caches in this series are snow friendly and family oriented with terrain and difficulty no more than 2 (or at least a descent spoiler clue for the harder ones). We hope you have as much fun as we did putting this together HAPPY CACHEMAS from JAMM
