The cache is located along the Lake Martin Loop Trail which surrounds Lake Martin, home to wildlife including alligators and birds such as egrets and herons. The trail is inaccessible from June to October due to alligator nesting season. Please respect and be cautious of wildlife while on the trail.
The Way of the Cross is a traditional devotional procession that focuses on specific events on the last day of Jesus Christ. The Way of the Cross breaks these specific events into 14 "stations" - the first beginning with the condemnation of Jesus Christ and the last ending with His burial. Each cache associated with The Way of The Cross will reference one of the 14 stations.
Although each cache is a devotional procession containing a prayer specific to the Christian faith, the cache is intended to encourage reflection and enjoyment of a beautiful and iconic part of Louisiana's natural environment - no matter what one's religious preferences may be.
This cache is the 10th of the Stations - Station 10 Jesus is stripped of his garments
SCRIPTURE
From the Gospel according to Mark 15:24
The soldiers divided his garments among them, casting lots for them, to decide what each should take.
