Geocache Description:

This cache is located near the Bench Road Trail of Mount Nebo State Park. This trail is a multi-use trail used by hikers and mountain bikers. It is suitable for beginning mountain bikers or seasoned veterans. It is a wide, clean trail resembling a country road.

This cache is a large camoed ammo can. If you bike to the cache, please log it that way. If it is a nice day, there will be folks on the trail. The bench trail is a loop accessed from many intersecting trails. Two normal parking spots for the trail are located at N35°13.254'/ W093°14.892' and N35°13.464' / W93°14.950'. The cache is accessed easiest by taking the outer, less traveled loop of the trail that contains the hike-in camp sites. This gives you the full loop distance of 3.8 miles if you desire and saves some bushwhacking.

The cache contains the normal trade items.

I put a disposable camera with flash for the cachers to use at the site-please use it and leave it. Please note on the log how many pictures are left. I will post them when it is full. *****No camera in the cache for now. Please look at the pics and let me know who these folks are so I can post it with them. New camera will be put out soon. Still looking for more of the faithful who will make the entire trip around the bench. Even though it takes longer (better for you), if is much easier than making the climb up and down anyway. We cachers seem to be in too much of a hurry when that is exactly what we should be getting away from....thanks to all of those who endeavor.******* Use the trails off the top if you must but direct bushwhacking is insane and dangerous. Preserve and use the trails.

Don;t miss the other caches on the Bench Road Trail such as the Bench Road Trail Cache (400 feet off the trail) and I hideth my cache in the cleft of the rock caches.

NOTE: This cache has a Arkansas State Parks Permit # 34 Verified by Tennessee Geocacher, Geocaching.com admin
