Geocache Description:

2 stage multi-cache, 1/4 mile from parking to co-ordinates. Slippery after rains. Stay on the path to avoid sinkholes and rough terrain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5IxcEzBwYU

Rock 'N' Roll This easy little multi-cache will lead you to a very unusual geological feature in Perry county,Missouri. Ball Mill Resurgence. The best route is, from whatever direction, to go to the intersection of Highway 61 and "V" road just North of Perryville Mo. Proceed North on V to Saline Junction. There take State Road 916 NE to the"Natural Area" parking lot. Do not park on SR 914. SR 916 can also be accessed from Hwy 51 via SR 920. But the way is trickier. Watch the curves on these small back roads. There are small wooden signs with "Natural Area" on them that direct you to the parking area from Saline junction. The best time to observe the resurgence would be after a day or two of heavy rain. The path is sure to be slippery then, and covered by running water in a few places . If you go at any other time, you'll just have to use your imagination. Please note, collececting geological specimens is prohibited. The cache is not at the posted co-ordinates. Container is a bison tube, At the posted co-ordinates you will find an information board with a diagram. Take photo of yourself in front of the Mill to claim this cache.
