Geocache Description:

A regular size cache at the top of the bluff overlooking Nugget Lake. A five dollar entrance fee applies to each car entering Nugget Lake County Park. Park is open year round and open from 6am to 10pm.


Start your journey at the boat landing and picnic area parking lot. The trailhead is marked by a sign across the lot between the bathrooms. From here it is a short, steep and lung burning climb to the top of the bluff and the overlook. It is well worth it though as the view is beautiful and quite substantial. 2 benches adorn the site to encourage the cache finder to sit a spell, peruse the cache and enjoy the view before heading back down.

Nugget Lake Co. Park features a 55 unit campground, several miles of hiking trails, a fishing pier, picnic area, sledding hill and boat and kayak rentals.
