Geocache Description:

Not too long of a hike along a primitive nature trail. The endgame is much more difficult than getting there.

This challenging cache is located within Old Santee Canal Park with an entrance fee of $3.00 for most people. Hours are 9 AM to 5 PM year round. There is a ton to do in this park; an interpretive center, The Berkeley Museum, Stony Landing house, and interesting history about CSS David - an advanced semi-submersible built during the civil war, and the whole reason this park exists, the history of one of the most advanced canals at the time.

Once you find the cache--which is actually in plain sight--you must make a determination of your abilities to retrieve and return it to it's spot. If you don't think you can retrieve the cache, log, trade, and return the cache to it's spot, don't go after this cache!

The cache is secured with two bicycle locks. The combinations are 6534 and 6315. It will be likely you will need one of these numbers to open the cache. Please, return the cache to where you found it.

In order to log a find, you must sign the log. Getting to the coordinates doesn't count. Seeing the cache doesn't count. Only retrieving the cache and signing the log counts as a find.

We hope you enjoy the adventure! Look for more caches in this exciting park soon!
