Signal and Tracker at Box Lake
Wilson Creek Geocaching Adventure Video
The "Wilson Creek Geo-Adventure" will involve approximately 100 kms of driving.
35 kms is on a paved highway. The other 65 kms is on the Wilson Creek FSR which is described as a good, 2 wheel drive, gravel road, and while that is mostly true the section from Wilson Lake East along Wilson Lake to Wilson Lake West has become really rough and there is going to be some pinstripping. Having said that if you don't want to damage your vehicle you can turn around at East Wilson Lake and then drive up the Wilson Lake Road on the other side of Box Lake.
In order to locate the final cache: "Wilson Creek Geo-Adventure Final" you must visit ten caches. Each cache will have a clue written on the lid as well as in the logbook. Write the clue down.
This Adventure will take you to several pristine mountain lakes and spectacular waterfalls with plenty of opportunities for camping, hiking, and fishing. To get the most enjoyment out of this caching series we strongly recommend bringing your camping gear. Also don't forget your camera, bug spray, and fishing rods. As always, remember to be bear aware.
Box Lake is located along Highway 6 approximately 10 kms from Nakusp. The lake is known for it's fish population and is stocked with rainbow trout, eastern brook trout, and kokane. The recreation site is very popular and offers 31 campsites. As well there is a popular nature trail.
We didn't hide the cache near the recreation site as it is very busy, as well as the GPS reception was simply awful....but do take the time to drive down and have a look at the Lake.
As this is a stand-a-lone cache, you are welcome to just log this cache if you don't have time to take in the entire Adventure.
You are looking for a regular lock n' lock.
