Geocache Description:

Located in the Daniel Boone National Forest near Cave Run Lake in Morehead, KY.

The cache is a 5 gallon bucket with a lid that you turn counter clockwise to remove. Do not put it on so tight that others have trouble getting it off. This is a cache that requires an above average hike which requires some big hill climbing unless you follow the waypoints. This cache would be best tackled after using a topo map and planning your approach or follow the waypoints. If you follow the waypoints this is the only path that requires no hill climbing. All other path choices require a climb up a hill.

A goal for the cachers who find this cache should be to determine the best approach for future cachers. It would be cool to describe your approach and how much time it took to get in and out.

Take pictures of your experiences. Wear proper clothing due to briars and growth and no real path.

This cache was originally placed by BigFig, a real pioneer of Geocaching. I think that he was the first in Kentucky. Thanks BigFig!!!
