On the Florida Trail
FTOC stands for Florida Trail Ocala Challenge. Itchyfeet2wander and poosu enjoy hiking and hope that there are other cachers out there who share the interest. Not a real challenge type cache, the hope is that this series will result in a nice string of caches on the Florida Trail as it traverses Ocala National Forest. To help with this we hope to identify the access points where a standard 2wd car can reach the trail for a nice day hike in the 3 to 7 mile range. To this end we have developed a cache naming system that may assist. All the cache names will have the format: FTOC ANNN. A is a letter, either P or T. P means it is a place to park where a road drivable in a car crosses the trail. T means it is a cache on the trail. NNN is the number of the cache which will start with 001 at the southern end of the ONF near Paisley. In our initial stretch we placed caches roughly every quarter mile so they are consecutive.
Our future caches will be approximately a mile apart and we'll skip numbers. Here’s where the challenge comes in. We are hoping there are some hiking cachers out there who will place caches in the gaps and maybe use the naming system so you can look on a geocaching map and see the path of the trail.
Keep in mind that no vehicles, even bicycles, are allowed on the trail.
Cache is a green match holder 10 feet west of the trail about head high. Only contains a log. BYOP
