Geocache Description:

This cache combines a large container, bushwhacking, and stealth required. Cache is approximately 30 yards off the trail through heavy underbrush.

Reaching the rank of Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America requires years of dedication and hard work. In addition to 21 required merit badges, each Scout must complete a project that — on average — requires 167 service hours. In 2008 alone, that translated to $16 million in service (based on the national volunteer hour value of $19.51).

This cache is part of a nationwide geocaching series called "Cache to Eagle" that showcases these special contributions. An Eagle Project completed several years ago by Clay Wayant, Eagle Scout with Troop 175, set up an orienteering course in this park. The course is no longer available, but gave many people a look into navigating through the woods.

Over its first 100 years, Scouting has provided millions of hours of service to communities across America. For our 100th Anniversary, we’re celebrating that legacy with special service opportunities through "A Year of Celebration, A Century of Making a Difference."
