Geocache Description:


I am a lineman for the county!!

What is a lineman: one who sets up or repairs electric wire communication or power lines — called also linesman

Please note that this area floods when it rains and may not be accessible. Also, please be aware that there is a big ditch on the left side of the trail the will give you a good view of gators, turtles, birds and other wildlife year around. 

Please do not feed or entice the wildlife especially the gators. Remember you are in their home. 

This trail is one way in and one way out as I don't know where the power line access road ends. Be careful as you are in a natural area so watch where you put your hands and look under your feet. 

This cache is placed in Myakka River State Park. The trail you will hike/bike leads to an oak hammock and the edge of the lake. Here the trail ends...bring plenty of drinking water, a snack and a pen. This is a good place to sit on a log and enjoy the area before you start your walk back. 

Cache may not be accessible in rainy season.
