Geocache Description:


The cache is located in Paul M. Grist State Park near Selma, Alabama. There is a $2.00 per person entrance fee. The park is open from 7:00 am to Dark. The cache is hidden in the woods just off of trails that run through the park. Parking is allowed ONLY in designated parking areas. No parking along the road is allowed. The cache is placed with permission from the Park and has the required permit. Geocaching is allowed by the State of Alabama Park system and you need to obey all of the park rules and regulations of the park.

Tranquility prevails in this beautiful 1,080-acre park as visitors enjoy the relaxing atmosphere around the park's 100-acre lake. Recreational opportunities include swimming, fishing, boating, picnicking, hiking and camping.

Located on the 100-acre lake, the campground provides 11 RV sites with sewer, water, and 50 amp. service. A bathhouse is located nearby that is ADA accessible. The bathhouse is cleaned daily. Primitive camping sites are also available

Paul M. Grist Park's day-use picnic facilities include a large picnic pavilion, serveral picnic tables, a beach swimming area, paddle boat rentals, large open playing fields and ample shoreline for bank fisherman.

Rental boats are available for your enjoyment. Must be 16 years or older to rent a boat. Each person in boat must have a Coast Guard Approved Life Jacket. Children under the age of 8 must wear life jacket at all times. Boats not allowed in swimming area. No swimming from boats.

There are a number of caches located in the park and some might say it is a power trail. Most of them are located along a trail but only method of getting to them is walking. There is a variety of sizes, difficulties and terrains for these. The trails are several feet wide and should be easy to follow. There is some change in elevations that have the terrains rated as they are. The trail around the lake is just less than 4 miles and will take about 2½ hours just walking it. There are some other trails as well. If you enjoy time in the woods looking for caches that might take some time to find then this would be the place to come to. If you want P&Gs or quick numbers, then this is not what you will find here. There are a few micros but most are smalls and regulars but there are some larges as well. Most of the caches have logs and trade items. A few have logs only but very few. Hope you enjoy as much as I enjoyed placing these. Happy Hunting.
