LOCATED ON ST.JOHN IN THE US VIRGIN ISLANDS. JUST A SHORT HIKE FROM CRUZ BAY
THIS CACHE IS JUST A SHORT HIKE UP THE HILL FROM CRUZ BAY ON THE ISLAND OF ST.JOHN. GETTING TO ST.JOHN CAN BE AN ADVENTURE IN ITSELF. A LOT OF THE CRUISES THAT GO TO THE AREA DONT STOP AT ST.JOHN. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THERE WOULD BE TO BUY A SHORE EXCURSION OR TAKE THE FERRY. WE TOOK THE FERRY BECAUSE IT WAS MUCH CHEAPER. THIS IS THE ROUTE WE TOOK. WE GOT OFF THE SHIP IN ST.THOMAS AND GOT A CAB TO THE DOWN TOWN SHOPPING AREA , 3 BUCKS PER PERSON. THE FERRY DOCK IS ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE TAXI STAND IN CHARLOTTE AMALIE. JUST ASK THE DRIVER HE WILL POINT IT OUT. THE FERRYS RUN APPROX EVERY 2 HOURS AND ROUND TRIP TO ST JOHN WILL COST ABOUT $14 PER PERSON.WATCH FOR DOLPHINS ON THE WAY. WHEN YOU GET OFF THE FERRY GO STRAIGHT OFF THE DOCK AND TAKE A LEFT WHEN YOU GET TO THE STREET. THE TRAIL HEAD IS JUST A FEW BLOCKS AWAY AT (N 18- 20.007/ W 064-47-500). YOU CANT MISS IT. THERE IS A SIGN RIGHT THERE AND A ROCK WALL. THIS IS A NARROW TRAIL THAT GOES UP FROM A FEW FEET ABOVE SEA LEVEL TO 746 FEET ABOVE SEA LEVEL, BE SURE TO BRING DRINKING WATER .THE VIEW IS INCREDIBLE. TO PROVE THAT YOU ARRIVED AT THE WAYPOINT SEND ME AN EMAIL DESCRIBING THE RUIN THAT IS THERE , GOOD LUCK! (One additional note, This is a virtual cache. Someone has left a container there but it has nothing to do with this cache.)
