Neahkahnie Witch Tree Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Seawind: The west Neahkahnie Trail is now open, but very heavy storm damage has made many of the current cache sites unusable. I am archiving the current caches.

Watch for a new series: Fog Rover

Thanks for all the finds!

Geocache Description:


Neahkahnie Witch Tree

 

 

With apologies to modern day Witches, I felt this was an appropriate name for this cache.

 

The tree is on the way to the summit of Neahkahnie Mountain and is quite a sight to behold.  It is most easily accessible from the Highway 101 trailhead of the Oregon Coast Trail, which you can find from the link below.

 

The trailhead is just across the highway.  This is also the start of a terrific loop hike which includes this cache.  Check out Neahkahnie Trailhead West for details.

 

The cache is a small Tupperware container.  Due to spotty reception, the tree may be a better guide than your GPS receiver.

 

If you can think of another name for the tree, please post it in your log.  Have fun!
