Geocache Description:


High clearance is a must to get close to this cache, though I never needed to use my 4WD. It is on state land, but you may need to open one gate to get there. As always, be polite, close gates, and leave livestock alone and you will have no problems. The cache is in a small ammo box, painted black as it was getting rusty. Among the initial items in the cache are a VHS copy of "Total Recall", Jimmy Buffet's latest live album "Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays", Richard Ford's novel "The Sportswriter" and assorted odds and ends.

A one-use camera is also there, so feel free to snap a picture of your successful quest!
