Geocache Description:


The container at this location is a Bison Tube. After signing the log sheet please roll it up and place it in the cap. Then screw on the bottom piece. This prevents the log sheet from being crushed and difficult to sign. Thank You!

The cache has been placed along the Madison County Transit Confluence Bike Trail that travels along the top of the St Louis District of the US Army Corps of Engineers levee. Located at Station 91 + 65, which is more commonly referred to as a floodgate. This floodgate was constructed by the State of Illinois in 1974. There is a Benchmark very close to the cache that indicates the US Army Corps of Engineers levee survey line. You are searching for a magnetic container – not a nano. Bring your own writing instrument. The cache is not on the floodgate. Use common sense and some caution when searching for this cache. This is a bridge over the floodgate and there is a drop off of 30+ ft on the outside of the guardrails. For this reason the cache is not listed as kid friendly. Parking for access to the bike trail is at the Russell Commons Park in Alton Illinois. Cache is along the bike trail approximately one mile Southeast of the parking area. Vehicle parking at the cache is also available by going through the floodgate at the stop light on the Berm Highway (Hwy 143) to a parking area between the river and the levee. Congratulations To CribbageWitch On Being First To Find!
