CCCNP – The Balancing Boulders
The CCCNP caches are in some of the scenic areas of the Preserve and, on the hike to the caches, one will pass many other scenic and beautiful areas. Please use the trail map available at the location of the Cane Creek Canyon Nature Preserve cache and plan your route carefully to minimize your hiking distance. To find all the caches in one trip could require as much as a 10-12 mile hike.
CCCNP – The Balancing Boulders
These interesting structures were formed by water, wind and variable density of the rock and or sediments. The process of formation took many thousands of years. My favorite formations in this section are the pedestal rocks – large boulders that are supported over other large rocks by pedestal like structures of rock. The pedestal rock that is most impressive to me is the one hiding the cache. You will have to cross a creek to reach this cache. Usually, this creek is no problem but, depending on rainfall, may present a minor challenge. The best place to cross is down the trail from the sign pointing to the Balancing Boulders. Be careful on the rocks.
This cache is an ammo can containing a few trinkets and the logbook.
Please do not log this cache as a team find unless the team is a family unit registered only as a family unit. If the individual members of the team are geocaching.com members then each member of the team should sign the log individually. It is not fair to the geocachers that hike up to 10 or 12 miles round trip to find the caches in the Preserve to have “team” members log a find without actually going to the cache site. Log entries not meeting these requirements may be deleted.
