Eyre's Folly #1 Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

DE_Cryptoman: I went out to another cache that I owned (Eyre's Folly #2) and on the way there, I retrieved this cache container. Two of the three primary entrances to Woodway Woods are posted as "NO TRESPASSING." The other entrance has a gate with a padlock. I consider this an obvious sign that the woods are pretty much off-limits. I am archiving this cache.

Geocache Description:


CONGRATULATIONS TO Abby the Explorer FOR FTF!

This is a small, plastic ammo box located in what used to be the best (in my opinion) caching area in western Waco.  It looks like many years ago, there was an effort to build in this area.  There are remains of a road through here and on some maps, it shows as Lake Forest Parkway.  The curbs were cast concrete, and I would bet that the surface was asphalt that has long since disappeared.  I would suppose that when the current dam was built for Lake Waco, this area was abandoned.  Walking through here, you can see hog wallows, deer trails and tracks.  Watch your paths as some will digress from the main trail and you can find yourself hopelessly confused.  Mark your trail with your GPSr.  If you are using an iPhone, make sure it is fully charged. 

The container is concealed under some logs.  You shouldn't have to do any serious bushwhacking if you follow Lake Forest Parkway and locate the deer trail.

Initial cache contents are a Clive Cussler paperback, several pathtags, The Bug-Eyed Avenger trackable, and some general swag.
