Geocache Description:


Just another cache near a boat landing. This boat landing happens to be near Spring Green on the Lower Wisconsin River State Riverway and this boat landing is one of a number of access points to get onto the river and enjoy what it has to offer! I have yet to really get out and enjoy this part of the DNR but will get to it someday as thankfully my Girlfriend is from Spring Green and we come back to visit her parents frequently.

I know we all love these hides as much as we love Bison Tubes in a pine tree... so it was my turn to hide a cache like this . Cache is a very small lock 'n' lock container located somewhere amongst the rocks. Please make sure as always to re-hide just as well as you found it please to keep it hidden from an muggles or bored kids waiting on their parents to launch or load their boat

Here is information about the Lower Wisconsin River State Riverway from the DNR website:

A decade of cooperative effort between citizens, environmental groups, politicians, and the DNR ended successfully with the passage of the law establishing the Lower Wisconsin State Riverway and the Lower Wisconsin State Riverway Board in 1989. Our goal is to provide a quality public use area for unique river corridor activities and compatible recreational pursuits; maintain the generally natural and scenic landscape of the Lower Wisconsin Riverway; and manage the corridor's natural resources for the long-term benefit of the citizens of the area and state.

The Lower Wisconsin State Riverway boundary contains 79,275 acres, of which over 44,000 are in state ownership, divided into 26 management units, and also contains or is next to State Natural Areas (SNA), Wildlife Areas (WA), and State Parks. The management is a team effort by wildlife managers, fisheries staff, foresters, park managers, wardens, land agents, and various natural resource specialists. The Lower Wisconsin State Riverway Board, a unique and separate State agency, is responsible for the scenic protection of the river valley.

The Lower Wisconsin State Riverway contains a fantastically diverse resource with a wide variety of historical and archaeological sites, wildlife, fisheries, and scenic beauty found nowhere else. You will enjoy your visit here and likely return again and again.

Two thirds of river users can be found on the stretch of river between Prairie Du Sac and Spring Green. Those looking for a more private experience will enjoy the middle section from Spring Green to Boscobel, and for the user wishing solitude, the stretch below Boscobel is the most secluded.

The Geocache Notification Form has been submitted to Spring Green Office of the Wisconsin DNR. Geocaches placed on Wisconsin Department of Natural Resource managed lands require permission by means of a notification form. Please print out a paper copy of the notification form, fill in all required information, then submit it to the land manager.
