Geocache Description:

17th Hole of the Beaver Creek Open

Welcome to the Beaver Creek Open.

Our cache course open consists of 18 hides in a loop around Beaver Creek. The caches are placed in a counter clockwise loop within the 3,346 acre Beaver Creek Sate Forest. While hiking in the Susquehanna Hills our caches will be found along the truck trails, horse trails and near public roads.

The Open was created to be a continuous hike which will take just over 5 1/2 hours to complete. All hides should be easy to find and because of the obvious, this will be cacheable year round.

The loop can be done in sections and if done with several cachers (cars maybe parked along the way to prevent back tracking). Parts of the trails are used by snowmobilers in the winter, but closed to horses and bikes from October 31 to May 1.

Shale would seem to be the rock of choice around these parts. Some times an out cropping of rock will come from deep underground. A crack in the layers of shale will allow water to seep out. This cache will bring you a fine example of this work of nature. The flow is not always heavy here but there always seems to be some.
