Root For The Spooky Old Tree Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

hollandweavers: I could not find the container anywhere. This tree is no longer as good of a spot as it once was, the nooks and crannies are gone. Time to archive. I did find the original container that had been replaced long ago. Oddly, there were several recent finds logged on a paper that was not the log, but none of those were shown as logged on the app. Not sure if these were possibly not actual geocachers, but you would think geocachers would be more likely to find this. Oh well, time to move on.

Geocache Description:


The trails between Hemlock Crossing and Pine Bend (where you can see the Weaver house) are varied, and there are a couple of places where there are forks in the road, so you can go either way. One way is shorter and more traveled. That way is not for you. 

Actually, you will not need to go that far. At one point, there was a tree that somehow made me think of the book "The Berenstain Bears and the Spooky Old Tree." This was one of my favorite books to read to my kids. You won't have to go far off the trail.

This tree was once the site of a former geocache of mine. The tree was blown over a few years ago and I had to archive my cache. I still like the area and thought about what to call this new cache. Something like "Son of Spooky Old Tree" or something. I settled on the current title as I am definitely in favor of this tree.
