Geocache Description:


The geocache hidden at the posted coordinates is a regular geocache, however, it is also part of the Allegheny GeoTrail (AGT), a publicly funded project designed to promote a pleasant and positive experience and image of the Allegheny National Forest region and its gateway communities. The AGT utilizes the growing interest in geocaching to assist both residents and visitors to the area in learning more about the unique attractions in the ten participating counties. This cache contains a unique self inking rubber stamp which you should use to stamp your Allegheny GeoTrail Passport to verify that you found it. When you have found a minimum of six AGT caches, you will be eligible to have your AGT passport validated and receive a commemorative AGT trackable geocoin at participating locations. You must have your official AGT passport with you when you find this cache in order to stamp it. Click on the Allegheny GeoTrail Logo below to visit the AGT website at www.alleghenygeotrail.com for complete details and a listing of participating locations where you may pick up and validate AGT passports to receive your souvenir geocoin, trackable at www.geocaching.com .



This cache is located in the Big Bend Recreation Area near the Allegheny Reservoir and is designed to help you learn a little bit more about the trails and other recreation facilities that you may not be aware of. The cache is placed with permission of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

The trail and hike is very easy if you come in from the Big Bend Visitor Center Parking Area at the bottom of the hill. I do not recommend trying to access this cache directly from Route 59 as there is no safe parking space there and the hill down to the cache is very steep and possibly dangerous. The walk is actually shorter, easier, and safer if you park in the visitor center parking lot next to the River downstream from the dam.
