Geocache Description:

This cache will require a boat or a kayak. Be sure to wear a life vest, and you may need to pay a launch fee depending on how and where you approach this cache. Please review the basic rules of water safety before attempting this cache.

So I had the container, we launched our boat, and I picked a perfect spot.  The only thing I didn't have was a cool or amusing name for this cache.  That's when I noticed it.  I spotted something very strange just off the beach at the base of a tree. I thought to myself, "That's not a deer skull".  I jumped out of the boat and made my way to this strange object.  As soon as I got close, I knew exactly what it was.  But how in the heck did it get here?  Did it swim here and die?  Did someone bring it here by boat?  Who knows!  But now I at least know what to name my cache.    

I took some photos, which I will post here. I thought about taking it home with me....but I really don't figure I have a huge need for a goat skull. Even if it is really cool. Instead I left it by the cache in case the FTF cacher wanted the weirdest FTF prize ever (which he did).

You are looking for a large round camo'd lock n lock container.  It is large enough for a few swag items or trackables.  I doubt many muggles will make the trek to this island, but please put it back so it's not easily seen. Enjoy the cache, have fun, and be safe on the water.  Beware of snakes and other critters.  Maybe even some rabid goats too.
