Geocache Description:

The cache is located along the Knobstone Trail between mile marker 42 and 43.

Indy Diver's Knobstone Trail series lost #8 sometime after August 2003. Being fanatical, I just could not stand missing #8 but completing #1 through #7 then #9. So I placed a cache in it's memory.

LongWayDown helped me with the name. Being a computer Science major he offered the nomenclature of revised computer programs - thus "#8.1".

This is the flattest portion of the Knobstone Trail. Unfortunately there are no hills involved with this cache if you park at the Spurgeon Hollow trail head. So you aught to tackle "Hollow Above a Holler" and "Ridge Line Hollow" to get your knob hiking done!
