Bike the Rock Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

dustystar: This one was not hunted often enough to justify the work to maintain it so time to take it down. Hope this will open the area up for others to put in the more popular quick find caches.

Geocache Description:

This multi cache is intended to be searched for via bicycle. It utilizes the Rock Island State Trail and features the refurbished bridge across the Spoon River. Expect about a 2 hour/12 mile excursion.

Parking is near the posted first location and each stop will give you new coords and a clue for the final location. Bring a pencil to take notes. After 10 clues, you will have directions for the actual cache, which is an ammo can filled with the usual goodies and log book. Most clues are easy to find, some are a bit nasty.

While you may walk this route or drive-park-walk, the fastest and easiest way is by bike. No horses or motor driven transport allowed on the trail. The trail is not all weather so rain and snow will create a much more difficult hunt. Water and restrooms are available every 4 miles or so. Trail hours are dawn to dusk.

This cache is registered with the Rock Island State Trail and conforms with all regulations.
