Geocache Description:




The cache location is an stone old farm spring in decent shape. One of the many ruins from the old farming days of White Clay Creek. Do not disturb the ruins. The cache is close by but not within 5 feet of the spring. Even with poor GPS reception due to tree cover it should not be difficult to find.

There are parking facilities at the end of Wedgewood Road where it meets Creek Road. (Fees apply here in-season (May 1 to Oct 31) since its part of White Clay Creek State Park) Creek Road going north is one way only (going north) and is closed on weekends. Creek Road is closed going south due to road damage from the creek.

The cache is only 0.2 miles from parking. You can bushwhack to this cache from Creek Road, but the suggested route is to use the trail (from SW corner of Wedgewood Road / Creek road intersection that heads west which will get you to with-in about 200 feet of the cache. Chose wisely (DEER STAND #34) and its not too difficult. Chose incorrectly and watch out for the multi-flora rose thorns.

Parts of the park are closed one week (except Sundays) in November, December, and January for deer hunting. This cache should not be attempted then since it is not that far from a hunting stand.
