Geocache Description:

You are looking for a small drink mix container. The lid unscrews. The hiding spot was a tight fit.Original cache removed and replaced with an ammo box. Covered with a rock or two and some sand.

You will be out on the Stone Mountain Trail. This one is hidden in a unique spot. . This trail has many mysteries. You'll see signs along the way. The yellow blazes are the Stone Mountain trail Not too far from the cache is a small cave under it.

Your route to this cache can be from two different directions. One way is to access the Stone Mountain Trail via Cave Springs and the hiking trail that ascends behind the springs. (this is the longer hike!)

The other possible access point is via the Olinger Gap Trail after hiking around Keokee lake via the Keokee Lake Trail. Either way is going to be 2mi or more and 1200' or so elev change. Not a bad hike.

Cache shouldn't be hard to find. Long pants recommended, lots of briers in the area.
