Still Ramblin' at Gamlin Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

GSFirefly: Well, darn! The area is really compromised, and the log has been cut up. The ammo can is missing. There is no good and safe spot nearby, that I trust not to fall victim to muggles or more "cleanup" on the part of BLM. So, reluctantly, I am archiving. Maybe with the spot opened up, someone else will place a cache in the area.

Geocache Description:

A beautiful walk in a special area will lead you to a nicely placed "regular" sized geocache. The trail is largely shady, so a summer hike is pleasant.


Welcome to the Gamlin Lake Trail System.  Trails are well maintained and clearly marked.  This area is open to recreational use. No motorized vehicles, however.  Pick up a trail map at the entrance, where there is parking and a vault toilet. There are a number of caches in the area. I thought there should be more! Enjoy your hike, and BRING INSECT REPELLANT in mosquito/fly season.

The signal in this area is not the most reliable. The cache is uphill from the trail. You will hop the small creek and then climb - not too far. Depending on your access point, maybe +/- 150 feet. Look for a large downed tree forming a horizontal log. The cache is on the uphill side of the log, under bark. Pretty obvious to cachers, but I hope not on the muggle path. 

The cache contains some swag, along with a log book and a couple of pencils. There is a FTF prize - one which RLDrosophila and I are "paying forward," as we earned it ourselves very recently as a FTF prize.

Enjoy the area. Please trade fairly,remembering that this is "critter country." Nothing edible, liquid, or aromatic. 

 

Congratulations to Martin 5 on his First to Find!
