You are looking for a large rubber coated flashlight. This is the third in the TOSOBL (The other side of Boone Lake) Series.
In looking at the Geocaching Map recently, I noticed that although there are an abundance of caches on the west or airport side of Boone Lake, there are very few on the east or Piney Flats side. This series will attempt to remedy that situation.
I found this area when attempting to log a FTF on a nearby island cache. Although I failed in my quest for that cache, I hid the first in this series that day. Now I have returned to hide some more.
In bushwhacking to this cache location, I passed several UFO’s – Unidentified Flowering Objects. These bushes were covered with yellow blossoms and were unlike anything I’ve encountered in the past. If you are hunting the cache in June, watch for these beautiful shrubs along the way. I’ve checked the usual online wildflower identification tools and my flower books, and haven’t yet identified this species. If you know what it is, feel free to post it in your log.
I am posting parking coordinates for the access point to this area. You will want to do some homework before you leave to determine the driving route. Parking for two or three vehicles is at a gate beyond which motorized vehicles are prohibited.
This cache is hidden deep in the woods approximately .2 mile from parking. Bushwhacking is required. Watch for the barbed wire fence and do not cross onto private property.
A bonus cache is hidden that will be accessible only to those who have found numbers one thru eight in the TOSOBL series.
Have fun, be safe, and be mindful of the rules posted at the parking area.
Congratulations to mharman02 and babe for FTF. They braved the elements at midnight to prove that this can be done in the dark and rain!
