The Shawnee Hills "Wild Cache" series goal is to get people out in the "wild" who like to hike and see unique areas of Southern Illinois.
This cache is located near the Wolfden Hollow Trail by Cedar Lake. The trail will take you very close to the cache location. No need to bushwack for long distances.
The total distance to the cache is about 1.8 miles, making it a round trip of 3.6 miles. Make sure to take time to find the other caches in this area.
Much of the description for parking and other waypoints is left up to the origanl cache in this series, so please reference the Shawnee Hills "Wild Cache" 1: Beaver Tree (GC1WX6Z).
The cache name is reflected on the .7 mile trip from GC1WX6Z to this cache. The total distance from the 1st cache and back is 1.4 miles. It is well worth the extra effort in the views and cool sandstone bluffs that you will encounter on your way there. I found a couple of cool slots in the sandstone and a great wide-angle view of the lake.
Enjoy & Happy Caching
This cache is not meant to be tricky. Please make sure to recover the cache exactly as found.
Hope you enjoy and Happy Caching!
