Geocache Description:

Black Bear

For the complete article discussing Tennessee's black bear population, see Ursus Americanus - 01 (GC7AHZK).

To obtain the true coordinates for this cache, determine:

In the song “The Bear Went Over the Mountain”, why did he do such a thing?


A) To score an earthcache - N36° 24.293 W84° 17.237
B) To see what he could see - N36° 24.239 W84° 17.273

NOTE: The caches are located along a stretch of road that can be busy at times; please be very cautious and do not allow children to retrieve the caches.

Once you have solved the entire series for the correct coords, go to http://tnvalleygeocachers.com/Ursas_Americanus.html to see a suggested route for getting the caches in the most efficient and timely manner.

I do not solicit favorite points and few, if any, of the actual hides in this series are worthy of such. However, if you enjoy this series/geoart and are so inclined to award a blue ribbon for the series as a whole, I ask that you bestow it on Ursus Americanus - 01 (GC7AHZK) so as to draw attention to the entire series/geoart for visitors to the area.

Enjoy, happy bear hunting and good luck spilling your ink. Cache ya later!
