This Chache is a regular sized, dark green ammunition box with a large grey Geocaching symbol on the side. It is on an island situated between Clearwater Bay and Rush Bay. Therefore, it must be accessed by boat, and a bit of light bushwhacking is in store, as there is no trail. This explains the terrain 5 rating. It has some good views, and a great fishing spot. As a bonus, it is a protected area! The best place to rest your boat is on the inside of the North-Western point of the island, where there is a smooth rock ramp and more or less of a trail head where you can disembark. However, the "trail" discontinues into brush fairly soon. There is a substantial amount of boat traffic passing through, so be weary of your wake, keep low, and don't let muggles spot you! Please trade up or equal, thanks! (I have sadly witnessed caches go to junk when people trade in bottle caps, quarters, flagging tape, broken kinder egg toys, and other items not worth caching). Also remember to practice a "leave no trace" ethic, and have fun caching. Happy trails! *Update Spring 2018* Terrain upgraded from 2.5 to 3.5, only because a boat is required to access the cache in summer, and there is some amount of bushwacking and walking through thick bushes for twenty or so meters to access the cache. P.S. This is our first cache, so reviews and suggestions are appreciated. Also, we will keep the cache periodically maintained, and looked after.
