Roscommon and Ogemaw Counties are ideal places to spend a day, a long weekend or
an entire vacation. Everything you can imagine is here for your enjoyment. Enjoy our
trails, State Parks, the Ogemaw Hills, and our great lakes – Houghton Lake, Higgins
Lake and Lake Saint Helen. Make your travel plans in northern Michigan and come
spend some time with us here.
About this cache: The Ogemaw Hills Pathways go through over 13 miles of the AuSable State Forest. Walk, ride your bicycle, or cross-country ski through the forest. Spend time there in the Spring for morels or look for sasquatch signs during the warmer months, as it has been rumored that this is where they "summer". You are looking for a plastic ammo can. Hidden in a typical way. A DNR vehicle passport required for entry to the parking area.
