Geocache Description:

This cache is designed to be a twist on the traditional night cache that you are used to.  YOU WILL NOT ONLY NEED A FLASHLIGHT BUT YOU WILL ALSO NEED A UV LIGHT SOURCE AS WELL.  This cache is within the boundaries of SGL 95 so PLEASE BE SURE TO WEAR YOUR BLAZE ORANGE GEAR! Parking is available for one or two cars, DO NOT BLOCK THE GATE!  


     You all can blame the SilverHorse for giving me a plastic ammo can and some reflective tacks for Christmas.  I didn't want to do the usual night cache that everyone is used to and was hoping to make this an interesting find for anyone attempting it.  With that in mind, you need to know that this cache will require at least an hour or more and the hike is well over a mile round trip.  Because of this, I have kept all the walking to fairly decent ground with the bare minimum of the normal bushwhaking associated with the typical Smoortz hide.  The twist to this cache is that you will also have to employ a UV light source in addition to the normal white light used to follow the tacks.  

Arrival at START: You will follow the WHITE TRAIL into the woods 

Stages: You will be searching for WHITE AND ORANGE diamonds that denote points where you will use your UV light to gather further information.

Final: You will follow the ORANGE TRAIL to the final ALL ORANGE DIAMOND the plastic AMMO CAN is within 15 feet of the diamond.

There is an unactivated FTF coin for the FTF.
