Geocache Description:

Cache is located at a pull-off into the Morgan-Monroe State Forest on Rogers Road near the North Fork State Wildlife Refuge.

The easiest route is from TC Steele State Memorial... unless of course it is winter and snow levels are high. In that case the final route to the cache may be blocked as the road is not plowed. It is a short hike from Gilmore Ridge Road if that is the case.

This cache was formerly known as "Rogers Road Pulloff" but a much better name was delivered by Roadandthesky. After visiting the cache he wrote this warning: 'A friend of mine with the DNR calls this hill jack ass hill. If for some reason the road is blocked (say a fallen tree) it can be very hard if possible at all to back up this hill in a two wheel drive vehicle. After storms you may want to walk down the hill and take a look first.'

If Rogers Road is passable and the downhill slope doesn't scare you, Friendship Cemetery at North Fork Refuge - GC2T4H0 is the next cache to grab down Jackass Hill.

Congrats to ForTheLoveOfSunrises on the FTF!
