Geocache Description:

Located at the top St. Mary's Falls

Found this old cabin when I first moved out here and have been wanting to place a cache here for a long time.

I needed to place the cache to the South/SE of the cabin to insure it was not in the open.

You will find it about 100 feet up the hill and hidden between some rocks on the ground (geo rock stack)

It is a standard ammo can

  • Access from the West at Wye Campground via Road 381 (~1500 Vertical Feet) - I think this route is shorter and easier. If you have a 4x4 you might get real close - clearance is the key. On the way there on this route you will be in the shadow of Mt. Rosa which seems to provide some of the head waters to all merge for St. Mary's Falls. Total trip can vary depending on how close you can drive, I would plan around 5-8 miles
or
  • from the East via Helen Hunt Falls / Gold Camp Road (~2000 Vertical Feet)- On this route you have the ability to really spend an entire day caching total trip about 5.5 miles (if you come from Helen Hunt Falls) 7 miles from Gold Camp
