Geocache Description:

This is an old school letterbox.  You will be looking for a plastic ammo can in the woods, but you will not have the final coordinates.  It is hidden in an ordinary fashion - nothing devious.


Follow the directions below to find the cache.  If you follow the directions carefully you shouldn't have any trouble finding it.

 

Please be sure to rehide the cache at least as good as you found it so that it doesn't get muggled!

 

This cache is in the Game Lands.  Be sure to follow all Game Land rules and regulations, and wear orange during hunting season.  Avoid this cache during deer season!!!

  • Since this is a letterbox-hybrid there is a stamp and an ink pad in the container.  It is NOT swag.  Please leave them in the container.
  • If you collect letterbox stamps go ahead and stamp your book.  The log book is large enough for you to stamp it with your stamp if you have one, but it is not required.

 

OK, here we go.  Follow the directions below and you should end up at the cache

  • From the posted coordinates go north to the edge of the woods.
  • Turn right (east) and walk along the tree line.
  • At the end of the tree line there should be a trail heading to your left.  If you don't see the trail you haven't gone far enough.  You may have to go around some thorns and other vegetation go get on track.  Near the end of the tree line you should be walking between the trees on your left and 2 pine trees on your right.
  • Turn left on the trail.
  • The trail has a gentle curve along the way.  At some point you will reach a point where the trail obviously turns to the left.
  • Before you take the left hand turn you should see a small pine forest in front of you.  Go straight into the pines.  (There may be some thorns in your way.  You should be able to easily go around them.
  • It is only a short distance through the pines before you break into a small clearing with more pines on the other side.  Continue across the clearing and enter the pines.
  • It is a very short distance through this group of pines.  Walk through.
  • On the far side of the pines the terrain starts on a fairly gentle downhill slope.  Look down the slope.  You should see a large downed tree with a lot of fingers.
  • Walk to the downhill end of the tree with all the fingers.  Take a look from down there for the cache you seek.
