The terrain of Mackinac Island is varied. Once you head away from the shoreline, the elevation increases. Mostly smaller rolling terrain once you're on top. Transportation on the island is limited to walking, bicycling or horses. I have not placed any cache that would require you to scale any steep grade. If you think you need to climb or descend any steep grade, there's a better way to approach from a different road or trail.
This cache is located near Surrey Hill or by the stables.
Most caches are close to the trail or road, at most, a dozen or two steps off. There are a number of points of interest to stop and take in the sights. If you use a bicycle, please remember to park your bike off of the trail or road.
I highly recommend to stop at the island's information booth at N45 50.971 W84 37.075 to get a map of the island. You can also download a copy by visiting thislink. I have created this web page with general information for geocaching on Mackinac Island.
I read many of the logs that are posted on my caches, but sometimes I can't read all emails. If you find a problem with any of my caches, please post a "Needs Maintenance" log. Logs of that type are filtered into a special inbox that gets 100% read. Thank you.
For all of my caches placed within the Mackinac State Historical Parks managed areas, a permit has been filed each year.
