Geocache Description:

This cache is hidden on an island in Lake Keowee, and is accessible only by boat--unless you are willing to swim across a short distance (maybe 20 yards or so).

The island is near the Fall Creek Landing, and is the site of "The Rock", which is a very popular place for jumping into the water. It's common to have several, sometimes many, boats gathered around while people swim in, climb up, and jump off.



The cache is near the other end of the island, well away from The Rock. Tree cover may be an issue, causing poor satellite reception. You're looking for a medium Lock&Lock box. As always, please re-hide well.

This location, as popular as it is, attracts a lot of rednecks who leave behind their beer and soda cans, along with plenty of other trash. I carried out three bags full after placing the cache, and I certainly didn't get it all. So I'd encourage you to be a good ambassador for geocaching and come prepared to practice a little CITO on your visit.
