Geocache Description:

Enjoy a nice hike down down an old forest road down into a hollow.  No need for any bushwacking on this hike; you can stay on the forest road the entire trip down into the hollow, and then you'll just need to hike the creek bottom a few hundred feet to the east and you'll be at the cache location.  Your entire trip will be on National Forest land.  Please be respectful and cache-in, trash-out.


I've rated this cache terrian a 4.5, but that is due entirely to the arduous trek back up out of the hollow.  There is nothing tricky about getting to the cache; no cliffs to navigate or trees to climb.  During the wet season or after a heavy rain, the creek may be running and you may have to get your feet wet to get to the cache location.

You are seeking a traditional ammo can, with only a logbook and a pen.  Please refer to the hint for a detailed desription of the cache hiding spot.  

This cache is available to find 24/7, but it may be kind of spooky at night.  But hey, it's your adventure...

Cache placed with permission of National Forest Service, Cassville/Ava/Willow Springs ranger district.  Much thanks to them for their geocaching friendly polices.  Have fun, enjoy your hike, and save some strength for the hike back out.
