Geocache Description:


|| Wicked Witch of the East ||

Welcome to Amnicon Falls State Park, one of my favorite state parks that was in need of a few more caches as an incentive to visit this beautiful area. The park is open from 6 am to 11 pm year-round.</.p>

There is a vehicle entrance fee of $3-11 per day or $13-38 for an annual pass depending on which state your vehicle is licensed for. This state park has a credit card machine at the entrance for payments. A window receipt will be issued.

The cache is accessible from the Upper Falls and/or Now and Then Falls parking lot.

The cache is hidden in a “Witches Broom.” This is a growth causing a cluster of “wild branches” resembling a witches broom. Witches broom disease is not caused by witches, however. They’re actually caused by stress that is brought on by pests or disease. This includes anything from mites, aphids, and nematodes to fungi, viruses, and bacterial organisms (phytoplasmas).

Look for the other caches in the park, including the Wisconsin Geocaching Association’s State Park Series Caches. https://coord.info/GC4NKEW

BYOP The log must be signed, otherwise there is no proof of your success.

The Geocache Notification Form has been submitted to the WDNR Manager, Kevin Feind, of the Amnicon Falls State Park for this specific cache. This DNR Notification form and land manager information form was submitted: http://dnr.wi.gov/files/PDF/forms/2500/2500-118.pdf
