Benbrook Dam Nocturnal Surprise Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

ex135nav: I’m archiving this because I am reducing the number of geocaches that I have to maintain and I’ll be moving out of the area in the future. This will open up the area for someone else too place some new geocaches. I’ve enjoyed the logs that is cache has received and see it as a great place for a new series by somebody else.
I have removed the container, and the reflectors.

Geocache Description:

This is an easy night cache where there is no canopy.  That means you should have great satellite coverage at all times but it also means it can be relatively long distances between some reflectors. I am sure some experienced cachers will do this in the daytime.


The posted coordinates are for the starting point.  There used to be a shack in the middle of the road (you may see the square in the asphalt where it was).  

April 2023 update: The first set of reflectors is still in place, but is hidden from view while at the starting point due to a bush growing up in front of it. Follow the left road and look along the way.

From there you are on your own.  If you get wet, don't blame me. I will tell you that when you have gotten to the 6th set of reflectors you will have to turn.  The hint is a real give-away.

I am sorry to say that there’s no longer a surprise in the cache.
