Geocache Description:

Come paddle or motor around Ash Island - put in and find a smiley!  This is not a nano in the woods - BNMac doesn't hide nanos, particularly on river islands!
 


Launch at Rodgers Landing.

There are two approaches to this cache; one is the most direct but tougher terrain route, second starts upriver at one of the boat-in camp sites - search for the large arched log, then the toilet.  Yes, the toilet!  You might surprise someone.... Just after the toilet, you WILL find poison oak, that dastardly stuff of no redeeming value.  It is just a little patch, one that will have you doing some contortions to avoid.  Then the trails seem to lead here and there and everywhere... Pick one!  And have fun backtracking!

The container is anchored so it will not float away, but if the object it is anchored to decided to float away... we'll find a replacement location as needed.

Please re-tighten plug well to keep water tight, thanks.

Congratulations to #1Waldo for FTF - Their FIRST!
