Geocache Description:


Located within the Fannin Park Unit of the Caddo National Grasslands just southeast of Lake Fannin.

This is a three stage multi cache.  Do not expect conventional geocaching containers and only the final stage will be obvious.  The final location is a small cammo'ed ammo can.
 
Be prepared for a rugged hike of 1.5 crow miles.  There are no trails and expect 2 to 3 miles of bushwacking.  Be sure to take advantage of some other great caches which you may be passing by in your quest.  Your hike will take you close to the "Cliffhanger Overlook", "A Walk in the Park" and "Cach Advance #1" caches.

Be sure to mark your parking location before you start out.  You can park alongside the road within the park.  I would recommend somewhere south of the fork in the road around N33 46.229  W096 09.184

The final location is a small cammo'ed ammo can.  Within this container, will be the coordinates to the bonus cache:  "Lake Fannin Challenge - Bonus".  There is a FTF prize of a pair of  new Cobra PR240 GMRS/FRS 2-way radios with 5 mile range within the BONUS cache.
