Geocache Description:



This cache is located in the Estero Bay State Buffer Preserve. Follow the red trail. As you approach the salt flats, the plant communities change dramatically. Very few plants can grow in the high salinity. During the rainy season, this area is under water and lots of fiddler crabs can be seen scurrying around. Plan on getting your feet wet and muddy!

The hike is approximately 4 miles round trip. Bring water and bug spray. Parking may be found at N 26 26.520 W 081 50.170.

Please remain on marked trails. There is no need to bushwhack for the cache. You are looking for a preform.

All plants and animals are protected within the preserve. Gopher tortoises, armadillos, fiddler crabs, feral hogs, raccoons, woodpeckers, hawks and eagles were sighted while placing this cache.

This cache was placed with permission from the Estero Bay State Preserve.
