Magnificent Oak Traditional Cache

Magnificent Oak

Certainly an impressive Live Oak. I wound my way up close to it and was grateful that I was wearing long pants for a change. There was lots of Poison Ivy. The Oak itself seemed to be just right for a big cache, which I don’t have. After trying to avoid all the Poison Ivy on the way out, I decided to put one of my regular caches near the trail.

If you want a short cut, you can probably squeeze through the locked gate along the road, between the Disc Golf cache and this one.

The cache is a standard KET cache: Tied in, camoed pill bottle, with only a rolled log, rubber band and a sealed tiny plastic bag. Please try to keep it that way and report if anything seems amiss.

There are three options for parking.

1. Near the plant coords: Placida Rd to Mississippi that continues as Brookwood.

FYI: Just got this in comment from Tonkavet&Lovebug: "Parked at the Brookwood parking coords. A man approached me as I was leaving and said it was illegal to park where I was on the grass. I said there was nothing saying no parking. But he claims I could be towed and fined."

2. Short walk (5-7 min o/w) from Ann Dever park off Sun Casa, second park entrance from S. MacCall. N 26 55.189 W 82 18.953.

3. Long, nice, walk: Park at the Oyster Creek Preserve entrance, off Placida Rd, across from Cedar Point park.
