Roll out the barrel, we'll have a barrel of fun
Roll out the barrel, we've got the blues on the run
Zing boom tararrel, ring out a song of good cheer
Now's the time to roll the barrel, for the gang's all here
So much for the Beer Barrel Polka now on to the cache.
The winter hiking season is upon us. Some of my caches out here have taken a beating over the years. Decided to fill a couple holes in the geo-zone and to recycle a few. The hike may be familiar but the locations are new and improved.
Come on out to Jefferson Memorial Forest and wander the hills, trails, deer trails and sometimes no trails in this remarkable natural resource that is so readily available to the local caching community. This is nature at its finest. Very little litter to be found (remember CITO), natural formations that are not adorned with spray paint, low muggle traffic. Just the sounds of the forest. Are there bugs - sure. Are there briers - sure. Are there hills - sure. Lace up your hiking boots use a little insect repellent and come on out. Every time that I log a cache out here it amazes me the few signatures on the logs. If you are not one of those signatures I have seen you don't know what you are missing. Come on out and give it a try - I promise that you will be back.

You are looking for a RX bottle containing only a waterproof log. Permanent markers work best – ball point and gel pens work – pencils well not so much. The coordinates have been averaged at least 100 times to within 10’ under moderate cover. Your results may vary so a hint is provided.
