Waterrock Knob Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

superstardj: Well, a sad end to an awesome cache. The cache has been removed - I will attempt to get ahold of the logbook and scan it in - I don't think any trackables were found in it from what I heard.

This wasn't my decision, the park rangers are pretty anti caching and we have to go by their rules.

Thanks to all that visited!
