Geocache Description:

Cache is located near the Devil's Fork Trail in the Jefferson National Forest above Ft. Blackmore, Va.

You are looking for a small Ammo can.

Your journey starts as you turn left off Hwy 619 and cross the bridge across Stony Creek and head towards Straight Fork

There is a parking lot at the trailhead. Coordinates are:
N36 49.111 W082 37.594

You may need a high clearance 4x4 to get there though. Rough road. You may want to park at the bottom of the hill near the creek.

Devil's Fork Loop/Straight Fork Ridge Trail There is another cache near here. See:
Devil Fork Cache GCHX3P


First: You will be crossing a stream bed that is very rocky.
Second: Leave logging road / trail at N36 49.175 W82 37.739
There is no real trail. Path is bushy in places, it's waist-high or so. Yeah, it's pretty overgrown.
I hope you enjoy the area. I'll be placing a few more caches in this area. Stay tuned.



Please do not leave water bottles or insect repellent bottles in the cache. They leak and damage the contents. Also, please do not leave any food products or anything that smells like food (i.e. fruit scented items). Animals will find and destroy the cache if you do. Thanks.
