Geocache Description:


 

Pumpkintown Lake 

     

Small lake on Pumpkintown Rd.This 7-acre lake is located in Gallia County, on the northern end of the Ironton Ranger District. It is among the most popular lakes in the area due to its remote peaceful character. It is also known as Kenton Lake.See the Ohio Natural Resources web site for details on fish stocked, hiking, and etc. http://www.fs.fed.us/r9/wayne/recreation_sites/fishing/kenton_lake.html

Lake is on Pumpkintown Rd. It is a gravel road. It's clearly marked but the road to the lake is not marked. On Pumpkintown rd turn to the lake at 38 48.991N 082 29.648W. Park at the bottom of the hill and hike to the cache using the graveled access road. Stay on the path until the last 50 feet or so.  Ammo box filled with goodies!

 

The first time I came here to fish there was so much beaver activity that I laid my poles down and just watched the beavers play. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this out of the way spot as much as I do.


Point of interest - Hiking trail - Morgan Sisters 14 mile loop. Access from parking area. http://www.fs.fed.us/r9/wayne/recreation_sites/trails/Morgan.pdf
