Too Far, Too Rough Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Ron Streeter: If the log is missing (as indicated by a recent searcher) then this is going to go the way of the archived caches.

This is such a remote location that only the true die-hard 4x4 fans even get out here and they are not all geocachers.

Freeing up this location for another cache to be placed by another geocacher.

It had a good run though !

Geocache Description:

If you don't have 4-wheel drive the only way you will get to this site is by helicopter or by foot !

That's right, this is a true 4-wheel drive experience!

I was visiting Dumont where my older daughter and her husband live and a camping trip to Bill Moore lake was offered.

Little did I know the extent of the 4-wheeling we would do. I used to own a Wrangler that would have been perfect for this ! Expect a full workout with at least three sections that offer alternate routes for the more timid driver or passengers, or for a vehicle that isn't equipped well enough.

Once you get to the general area (about a 1 to 1.5 hour drive on the Jeep road) I suggest going all the way to the end...you'll see the cabin remains. Park there and walk back to the cache site...it's only about .20 miles.

You should have a nice view once you are there. The actual terrain around the cache is about a level 2. The cache difficulty is probably a 3 or so because of multiple hiding spots.

My kids and their friends looked for it and 4 of 5 found it in about 10 minutes.

From what I understand, in a normal snow year, this cache may only be available in July and August.

Locals will know about this most likely.
