You are about to experience MaxB and Surely Your Kidding’s
“Wildlife of the St. Joseph River Cache Series.”
This is one of Seven (7) caches you can find by enjoying a day on
the St Joseph River the entire series will take 3 to 5 hours.
The other caches in this series are:
- Raccoon Refuge
- Otter Occupancy
- Turtle Point
- Deer Swim Island
- Fox Flats
- Rabbit Br'er
This cache will take you down the beautiful St Joseph River past
undeveloped property and wildlife. We commonly see Deer, Geese,
Great Blue Heron, Swans, Ducks, and Otter. After leaving the St
Joseph 2010 River Cache #5 it will not take long reach this cache.
The next landing down river from this cache is in Buchanan, MI so
plan accordingly.
You will need a boat of some sort to complete this cache.
(Canoe, kayak, motorboat). Even if you can find parking closer to
the cache, we recommend against attempting to swim as the river has
a strong current. We also suggest you always use a life vest (PFD)
when boating on the river.
The property on both sides of the river is private property.
This cache is on State waterway but not accessible from land
without crossing Private property. ONLY for approach from the
river. DO NOT CROSS PROPERTY FROM LAND TO ATTEMPT THIS
CACHE.
The rating for this cache is based on the need for a watercraft,
and unique hide. If this were in a park it would be a 3.5 / 1.5
rating.
The cache is a unique hide, patterned after a cache we found a
few years ago near the great Salt Lake.
