Mad Rocks Cache Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Cache-tech: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have had no contact with the cache owner since my last note and there has been no notes posted to the cache page in that time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache.
When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link (Mine) across the top and then click on this cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future. If you do not plan on replacing/repairing your cache, please CITO any remains returning the site to the original state before you placed your cache.

Thanks for your understanding,
Cache-tech

Geocache Description:

Mad Rocks Point in Bay Roberts, on the Bay Roberts Heritage Trail

This cache has a spectacular view along the Bay Roberts Heritage Trail.

This terrain is STRONGLY NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN.

Drive all the way to the end of the road at Mad Rocks Point in Bay Roberts and park in the parking area. Head South East on the main trail. When you reach a fork, the correct directon is a "Toss-up". Follow the path until you find a "Shoe Hole". Look up and you'll see where you're "Head"ed.

Be careful, this one requires attention to your footing. It is a marked trail but keep your eyes on where you are walking, not on your GPS (go as the crow flies and you will get wet and very hurt).

There are probably only three movable rocks at this spot and they hide your prize.

On our way back we found a wonderful spot to end the day, the Mad Rock Cafe. Stop in, the Moose and Beef soups are great. They are fantastic people and very knowledgable about the history of the area. Don't forget to tell them you are GeoCaching.
