Geocache Description:

NANO cache. Bring your own writing and extraction tools. Geocaching around Casper has been a little slow lately so I decided to do my part and get a few new caches out. Remember- this is Rattlesnake country.


I have lived about two miles from here for 35 years and never knew that this was public land open to recreation, and geocaching is certainly recreation. Please be aware of all the rules for using this area. some are posted near this cache and I have included some below with a link to the state WEB page.

Public Access Rules

The rules and regulations controlling public use of state lands are simple. First, the lands must be legally accessed. Anyone crossing private land to reach state land must have the permission of the private landowner. The landowner is under no obligation to grant such permission. Second, off-road vehicle use, overnight camping, and open fires are prohibited on these state lands. All motorized vehicles must remain on established roads. New roads cannot be created, nor can established roads be extended by public users. Activities that would damage state lands, roads, improvements, or lessee property interests are also prohibited. Finally, cultivated croplands are not open to public use.

Many of Wyoming’s state land parcels are intermingled with, surrounded by, or fenced in with private land and are indistinguishable from such private land. The responsibility of knowing whether you are on private or state land is YOURS. Adhere to the rules and exercise basic common sense, courtesy, and consideration for others, and you will do your part to help protect Wyoming’s state lands and keep them open for public hunting and fishing.

 

Congrats to EH for FTF.
