Geocache Description:


You are looking for an ammo can located a short walk from the parking area. See additional waypoints for parking. This area is open during normal park hours, 7am to 10pm. The area is not accessible after dark.

This geocache is to commemorate our visit during the weekend of September 12-14, 2014.  We camped here in 2013 with the CSRA Geocachers and had so much fun we decided to return this year with our CSRA friends. The highlight of the night was an awesome ranger-guided canoe paddle in the moonlight. We were also treated all weekend with the delectable camp cuisine provided by Pilgrimsprogress. Yum!

This park is located on the western shore of 71,100-acre Clarks Hill Lake, one of the largest lakes in the Southeast.  With its boat ramps and accessible fishing pier, it is especially popular with anglers and boaters.  A sandy swimming beach welcomes visitors to cool off during Georgia summers.  Rental cottages are located on the lake’s edge, and the spacious campground is nestled into the forest.  Tent campers will enjoy extra privacy in the walk-in section.
 
Elijah Clark State Park is named for a frontiersman and Georgia war hero who led pioneers during the Revolutionary War.  A log cabin replica of the Clark home displays furniture, utensils and tools circa 1780 and is open weekends April through November. Visitors can also view the graves of Clark and his wife Hannah.

 

***This geocache was placed with permission of the park manager and will be maintained by our friends Pilgrimsprogress and Lowdollar. There is a $5 parking fee or your use your annual State Park pass.

The 85th Anniversary Birthday Bash Geocache is over.
