Geocache Description:

February 2011 Update:

PLEASE use plenty of natural cammo and rehide this well. Cache is literally in the center of the newly constructed nature trail. This is a very old cache, please help it continue to thrive by being stealthy and rehiding it well.

Original Cache Page Listing:

Turkey Creek is a beautiful example of nature in its splendor. Bring your walking shoes, your swimming trunks, and your sense of adventure!


This is the spot that was threatened not so long ago -- can you believe they wanted to build a prison here?

Because some people kept abusing the area, the road to the cache area is currently closed to cars, but bikes and pedestrians are another story. We frequent the area for walking and general outdoor enjoyment. There is a good swimming spot right near the parking area, and another swimming area near the cache. The river can flow pretty fast, so watch your kiddies! "Reef shoes" are advised just in case some idiot threw glass in the water. Please practice Cache In, Trash Out!

Please trade up or LEAST trade even! Cache was a camoflaged ammo box and was placed with sat accuracy of about 20 feet. Hidden on July 9 -- my birthday! (It is now a large, plastic container about 7 inches tall by 4 inches square around the base. Cache contents at time of placement are as follows:

  • Logbook and pen
  • Brass magnifying glass & case
  • Sunglasses & case
  • Jurassic Park paperback
  • Haunted Planet paperback (younger readers)
  • Picture album
  • "Liar Liar" VHS tape
  • Jeep bumper sticker: "Don't follow me, You won't make it!"
  • Car visor sunglasses holder
