The cache is a bit harder than the other ones in the Audubon Trails area. It's a sample tube hidden in the woods with some serious camouflage.
Audubon Trails Ozarks Nature Reserve, a 60-acre nature reserve is owned by the Ozark Rivers Chapter of the National Audubon Society. The Reserve is dedicated to education, with a commitment to habitat restoration and preservation. When completed, the Reserve will have over 4 miles of trails that will traverse 5 distinct ecosystems including a dolomite glade, tall-grass prairie, oak savannah, upland oak forest with 2 stands of shortleaf pine, and a spring-fed riparian zone. A trail map of the nature reserve is available at http://www.ancienttiger.com/audubon/naturemap.asp
We recommend following the trails rather than bushwacking; all of the caches on the area are fairly close to the trails. Please only use the trails during daylight hours. I have hidden another similar hide within 5 miles of this cache, so if you've found all of the other RicknJoy caches in the area, this one should be easy! I hid this one in the pouring rain, so the coords might be a bit iffy - but it's out there...
Permission to place this and other caches on the nature reserve has been granted by the Ozark Rivers Chapter of the National Audubon Society.
