Geocache Description:


“A Scout follows the rules of his family, school, and troop. He obeys the laws of his community and country. If he thinks these rules and laws are unfair, he tries to have them changed in an orderly manner rather than disobeying them.” (Excerpted from Boy Scout Handbook, 11th Edition, copyright 1998 by BSA)

This cache is the seventh in a series of 12 dedicated to the Boy Scouts of America, with each cache named after one of the 12 points of the Boy Scout Law. It is located along the Boy Scout Trail in Petit Jean State Park. See the cache listing for the first cache in this series, “BSA 1: A Scout is Trustworthy” (GCTXEB), for a description of the Boy Scout Trail.

This cache is located along the trail between the Blue Hole and Highway 154. The cache is a camouflaged military decon kit containing a logbook, pencil, pencil sharpener, and perhaps a small trade item or two. The cache is not located far from the trail, so bushwhacking is not necessary and please don’t stray off the trail too early.

When you find this cache please take note how it is hidden and replace it back as you found it so those following you may experience the same challenge.

Please note that the park trails close at dusk, in accordance with state park regulations. Do NOT start your search if you cannot be off the trail by nightfall and do NOT search at night.
