If you are following the directions provided, the cache will be less than 6 feet off the left side of the trail. You are looking for a small, pill bottle covered with black electrical tape. It also contains a home-made log. It is covered with leaves, moss and bark. Please be sure to rehide it well, as there are MANY non-geocachers who will pass within FEET of it.
Please remember that animals have a much keener sense of smell than we humans. Please do not place candy, food or any other scented items such as soaps or candles in the cache, as animals often mistake these items as food, and will destroy the cache container trying to get to it. Also, please hide the cache container so it is not visible, so that other geocachers may enjoy in the hunt. - Thanks
