Geocache Description:

You're searching for a small camoed lock 'n lock on the Van Fleet State Trail about midway between the Mabel and Bay Lake trailheads.
Included is some normal geoswag and for the FTF there's a brand new (not activated) USA flag geocoin.

Although there are many caches on the Van Fleet there are none between the Mabel and Bay Lake trailheads. So here's a new one about midway between those two points. (Well, Moparots does have 'I Dare Ya!' - but that's basically at the tailhead.) I gave it a fairly high difficulty rating because no mater which end you start from you're looking at a 9+ mile round trip.
I averaged 400+ points to get the coords, but as always trees, satellite alignment, the phase of the moon, etc. can cause issues. If you have difficulties use the hint.

FYI for the uninitiated - 'round here Mabel is pronounced MAY-bell. :-)

Congratulations to blasley on the FTF!
