Geocache Description:



Help! I've Fallen And I Can't Get Up!

Just a nice EASY little puzzle type cache in the McKeldin Area of Patapsco State Park.

Cache is a small sized lock'n'lock container secreted near ground zero containing a stashnote explaining geocaching and a few logsheets as well as a few small SWAG items, but no writing utensil so BYOP. It should be a fairly quick find. Cache is along the Switchback Trail near Liberty Dam Overlook. Use the parking lot near the overlook and follow the trail to the cache site.

As to the puzzle portion of this cache....it seems as though somebody has fallen very near to ground zero. Follow the remnants to find the cache VERY nearby. Please do be sure to use stealth as this one is located extremely close to the trail. Please also be sure to rehide the cache as good as or better than found. Enjoy!

This cache is DNR approved and is hidden in the McKeldin Area of Patpasco State Park. There is a modest fee to enter the park: $2 per person in-state, $3 per person out-of-state. Please park in the parking lot near the Liberty Dam OVerlook and walk back down the Switchback Trail to ground zero.



FTF honors go to Pinnstef57!!! Congratulations!!!
