Pepermint Pop Stop Traditional Cache

Welcome to a sweet little spot with a twist! Hidden just off Grayson County Road 80 aka Chapman Road, this cache celebrates a favorite year-round treat: peppermint candy canes—Yes I know, Christmas is over 100 days away, but hey, who doesn't like candy?

As you approach the coordinates, you'll notice bright red-and-white striped barricades standing guard, looking for all the world like giant candy canes themselves! These roadside markers aren’t just decoration; they signal recent changes in the landscape. Road crews have rerouted a section here, carving out easy, accessible parking for all who wish to pause and explore.

FTF Honors go to Angellisa and QuadWrays!  Found early not long after publishing.

Your target is a vibrant red container cleverly tucked away, echoing the stripes that surround you. This Peppermint Pop Stop invites sharp-eyed seekers to reflect on how both nature and our built environment are always changing, just like the roads we travel and the treats we enjoy.

Take in the fresh air—and the sweet scent of adventure—before heading on. Don’t forget your pen or pencil and be sure to share your most memorable non-holiday peppermint treat (or find!) in the log. Happy hunting!

Parking: Ample, safe parking is available just feet away from the cache site due to recent road improvements. Please exercise caution with any roadside traffic.

Kid-Friendly • Easy Terrain • No room for Swag!

Think outside the (gift)box—peppermint is always in season here!
