Geocache Description:

This cache will take you 13 miles into the woods on the Middle Fork Road to a beautiful waterfall that is right next to the road. The last few miles of road have some small washouts that you have to cross but you should not present any problems as long as you take them slow. The cache is a 50 caliber ammo can.




Driving Directions:
Take I-90 to exit 34 and head north on 468th Ave SE.
Turn right (east) on SE Middle Fork Road.
At Lake Dorothy road you can take either road (they merge back together later)
The pavements ends and NF-56 begins
After crossing the river turn right around N47 33.300 W121 32.100
Stay on the main road
The cache is just past the Dingford trailhead

About the “Drive In The Woods” cache series:
I like to take long drives in the woods and did it a lot before caching prompted me to start hiking. But hiking is not for everyone so this series is intended to get you into the woods without needing a backpack. Most cars can drive forest service roads just fine, but high clearance, and 4-wheel drive, are a plus for the type of roads that I like. But I don’t really know how to rate the terrain, they are not physically demanding, but do require some driving skill.

Here are the other caches in this series:

A Drive In The Woods #1 - Dead End
A Drive In The Woods #2 - Top Of The World
A Drive In The Woods #3 - Mine creek
A Drive In The Woods #5 - A River Runs Trough It
