Geocache Description:

Located along the Sheltowee Trace National Recreation Trail

Cache is large enough for trade items and should be easy to locate. If you are not hiking the Sheltowee Trace, you can park at the Holly Bay Campground Ampitheater and take the easy and scenic loop trail to connect with the ST.

ABOUT THE SHELTOWEE TRACE

The Sheltowee Trace is a 307-mile trail passing through beautiful, rugged and remote landscapes as well as by unique geological and cultural features. The southern terminus of the trail now extends to Leatherwood Ford Trailhead in Tennessee and the northern terminus is in the Daniel Boone National Forest just north of Morehead, Kentucky.

The Sheltowee Trace is a National Recreation Trail and is named after Daniel Boone, who was given the name “Sheltowee” by Chief Blackfish when he was adopted into the Shawnee tribe. Sheltowee translates to “Big Turtle,” so a white turtle symbol has been used to mark the trail.

I am continuing the tradition of drawing attention to this trail begun by Moonsovrbend, who placed most of the original caches on the ST. All caches placed with permission of Daniel Boone National Forest Service.
