How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

The container is a somewhat common micro. Bring your own pen. Parking can be found on a side road just west of the cache.

The feature is buried, so many people don't realize that they can hunt for benchmarks. If you like getting those pretty icons in your profile, logging a benchmark will add a new one to your list of found geocaches (sorry, it won't add to your total caches found). This cache represents a two-for-one. It is located at the Carlon Benchmark, so when you find one, you'll find the other. (Actually, I'm told that it's a reference mark for the original benchmark at N 45° 21.219 W 122° 46.328, but since geocaching.com calls it a benchmark, I will too.)
Be sure to bring a camera so that you can take a picture of the benchmark and post it when you log the benchmark.

  • Cache owners appreciate when finders provide logs about their adventures (or misadventures). Nothing more than TFTC makes us frown.
  • Please log DNFs and information about the cache's condition. It helps owners decide when to check on their cache.
