Geocache Description:

A large ammo box off the North Grove trail in Big Trees State Park. There is a $6 parking fee.

At least once a week this winter my job brings me to Big Trees. I've hiked the North Grove trail too many times to count now, and every time I look around and wonder why there aren't any caches here.

The cache is about half way on the North Grove loop -- about a .65 mile walk. You'll only need to stray about 150 feet off the trail. There is snow here in the winter, but the path is walkable with or without snow shoes. It is hidden with the hopes that it will be accessible all year long without too much digging after new snowfall. I've never been to the park in the summer, but consideration has also been taken for after the snow melts.

I hope that your experience in Big Trees is as great as mine have been. I encourage using the guided tour pamphlet along your walk. Enjoy.
