How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

Located on the high ground of Mackinac Island. Expect a decent up hill walk with smalls rises on top.


Located near the southern end of the island. Be careful on the trails as many of them have roots and rocks to trip you up. You will be searching for an ammo can. Please re-hide as found or better. Please trade fair or don't trade.

I would like to thank SP500 for the donation of this ammo can.

I highly recommend picking up an "Mackinac Island Map" from the information booth across the street from the Arnold docks. If the maps are not in the holders on the front of the building, look on the sides of the building. For your convenience and planning, you can view or print the PDF file for the Mackinac Island Map. The one available at the information booth is printed on a glossy paper and holds up fairly well when repeatedly tucked in and out of a pocket or caching bag.

Also for your convenience I have created some non-geocache waypoints. They are for:


MIMAPS Mackinac Island Maps
MITOWN In town bathrooms and drinking fountain
MISEDRINK Southeast Water Fountain
MIBRITISHLANDG Bathrooms, drinking fountain and snack bar
MIUPARCHROCK Bathrooms and drinking fountain

These waypoints can be download as a zipped GPX file here. If I would put these as child waypoints on each cache you would end up with many child waypoints with the same coords but different names. If I put them on a couple a cache pages then you may not download those caches. I would love to hear how this works out for you or if you have any suggestions.
