Geocache Description:

This cache is located in Jefferson Memorial Forest in the Paul Yost Recreational Area. Area closes at dusk. If you take the yellow square trail at the Mitch McConnell Loop trailhead, you will only have to bushwhack about 100 feet off the trail.

KyHiker gave this large green ammo box to me for completing 2000 finds. It was packed with so many nice things that I just had to get out and hide it in one of my favorite places. This yellow square trail has until now been mostly overlooked by cachers so I chose it as a good place to put this cache.

There is (1)one requirements and (2)one suggestion to log this cache.
1. Physically find the cache.
2. In your online log do a writeup with the question, what has geocaching done for you? or you can write a personal experience that you might have had while geocaching. For newer cachers this can be as little as telling how geocaching has got you out of the house more or gave you a new thing to do with the family. For the veterans out there and especially those surpassing the 2000 mark, I expect a little more.

I will start this off by saying that at the age of 8 having my big brother go off to collage, I found myself needing things to do on my own. I soon took up hiking through the woods at my parents cabin on Nolin Lake. It did not mater if it was 70 or 15 degrees outside I enjoyed exploring nature. I found as time passed and I got married and had three kids I had lost something I truly enjoyed. When geocaching got me back out in the woods I found myself feeling like that 8-year-old kid of long ago, this along with a few dozen other things is one of the main reasons that I enjoy geocaching so much. Now it’s your turn to tell me your story.
