Geocache Description:


This cache is placed for the 2018 Cache Ba$h

 

Follow the directions to get to the cache.  From the posted coordinates you should be at a trailhead split on the south side of the road .  Go left and follow the yellow brick/striped trail.  The trail is a real twister as it goes up and around.  Look for the scarecrow. After a few minutes hiking you'll come to a 4 way intersection.  This is where you and your pretty dog too can leave the yellow brick road.  Turn left.  Go 100 feet at a bearing of 135 degrees on this new trail.  You'll come to a 2nd split.  Take the right path and go about 600 feet in a southernly direction.  (You'll know you're on the right trail if you pass the West Bend geotour cache.)  You should now be between two logs that have been split in half by the Tin Man to allow the way.  Continue 200 feet in a southernly direction on the trail to the crest of a hill.  At the top of the hill look 75 feet southwest off the trail.  You should see something the color of Oz.  You will find the cache within 10 feet of this beacon.
