Geocache Description:

Cache located in the "Nueces Canyon" close to the Nueces River!

This cache is a pill bottle, with small items. BRING YOUR OWN PEN. There is a FTF certificate and one of my TxLoneRanger Poker chips for the First To Find!

This cache placed with the owner's permission. Have fun!!!

The term Nueces Canyon is used to encompass the small communities of Vance, Barksdale, Montell, and the City of Camp Wood, all of which rest along the crystal clear waters of the Nueces River which begins just north of Barksdale and ends in the Gulf of Mexico.

Where it begins is a natural canyon of sorts, rich in American, Indian, and Mexican history. This is where the term Nueces Canyon originates. Nueces is an Indian term that translates as "nut", so called because the Nueces River has numerous Pecan trees along its bank.
