Carving Out A Niche Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

OReviewer: As there's been no response to my earlier post, I'm archiving this to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact me (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, I'll be happy to unarchive it.

Geocache Description:

This is a 5 part multi-cache, the final container is an ammo can. Wear your hiking boots for this one, some areas are rocky and/or wet. Great views and geological features are among the highlights.

Start the journey at the parking area along Spring Creek, at N40 53.559 / W077 47.528. The lot may be easy to miss, there is a dense group of tall spruce trees to the south side of the entrance. There is plenty of parking, room for at least 12 cars.

Cross the footbridge over Spring Creek and let the fun begin. The hike is less than 2 miles and the vertical climb is just under 300', but well worth it. Hiking boots are highly recommended, some sections are rocky and others could be wet at times.

The four stages leading to the final cache are small objects, but most of them shouldn't be too hard to spot with the clues. All stages except the final are pretty snow friendly hides. The final is an ammo can with log and cache stash. Please re-hide all of the stages exactly where you find them.

Please use caution while hiking, none of the stages require endangering your well-being to obtain. Be safe, have fun and leave no trace!!!
