DSCA - Giant SW Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

train1904: It appears that the area has been burned and the container destroyed. I gave the person who made this discovery permission to log a find since they did find the residue of the Geocache. Since I no longer live in the area, I will archive it now.

Geocache Description:

This cache  is hidden on the  Dale Sare Conservation Area under Missouri Department of Conservation Special Use Permit 1303. Thanks to manager Kevin Hedgepeth for approving it. All of my caches on this conservation area are Park and Hike caches.

You can park at this gravel lot: N 37 22.065 W093 19.241. From there you will hike up trails to a meadow and then through the woods about .5 miles total. Ticks, chiggers, thorns and poison ivy can be a problem.. You are looking for a giant sized container. It contains a log and a variety of trade items

Since this is a conservation area, please use due caution during hunting seasons. In fact, if it is opening day just don't even try and at other times, use common sense. The area is closed from 10 pm to 4 am every day, so daylight caching is probably best.  In my opinion, I would prefer to cache this conservation area in late fall, winter and early spring.

Most of your hike to this cache will be on a rocky trail and will be some uphill and then it will level out. .   You will then have to bushwhack down a ravine and back up some.
