Geocache Description:

A little detour off of Judy's Jaunt will take you near a Cypress tree designated as a Champion specimen of it's species just around the corner from this cache. BYOP

The coords were taken on an overcast day and there is plenty of tree cover. We all know that 10 - 30' off sometimes can be expected with poor reception so if you find the coods are Way Way off, like 50' or more, please send me a note and I'll try to go back on a nice clear day and average some better coords. ALSO, Ive come to know that park personnel dont particularly like seeing off - trail paths, you know, our GeoTrails. If you notice that we are wearing a cachepath pretty hard, please think about taking a little different route and maybe even try to erase the trail a little... and CITO.
