Geocache Description:

Visit the foot of the giant 110ft cross beside the Interstate in Cookeville. Stay as long as you want.


BYOP. Occasionally muggles come here, if they are around please wait for them to leave.

Caution: there are electrical boxes very nearby. DO NOT attempt to open them! The cache is not inside.

When this cache was originally published, it was not possible to drive and park so close to the GZ, hence the T3 rating. The church has since paved the track to the cross, making it much more accessible to the public. I have retained the original terrain rating in the event that cachers have used it for their DT grid.

Note that the cross is closed to the public at 7pm daily.


Directions to parking
From exit 286 (S Willow Ave), head south on Willow Ave. In less than 500 yards, turn left onto Green Gate Lane (at the Willow Ave Church of Christ). Follow Green Gate all the way to where it dead ends. Turn left onto Miracle Road. Follow Miracle all the way to the cul-de-sac and then continue on the single lane asphalt track into the woods and up the hill.
