Geocache Description:

Go from Dungannon or Coeburn, Virginia on SR 72 to the Little Stony Creek Trail. This cache will be found from the Upper Falls parking area.

Welcome to our continuing Fallin' For Virginia cache series. The series features some of the most beautiful water falls of Southwest Virginia.

The cache is placed very near the Upper Falls of the Little Stony Creek. The trail follows the Little Stony Creek for 2.8 miles through a 400 feet deep and 1700 feet wide gorge. You are not going nearly that far but it is worth taking the hike the whole distance. Many rapids, stone formations and small waterfalls can be seen along the trail. There are three other caches along the trail within a .5 mile hike from the parking area. They are: The Troll...(GCMDGK), Fallin'...VIII (GCWW5M) and Granny's...(GC57DF).

A special thank you goes to mtmanva2 for his help in placing this cache. He is what caching is all about.

You are looking for a small Rubbermaid container that is camo-taped. You may need to use the hints because GPS reception was most difficult. Please post your coordinates if your GPSr is receiving with good accuracy. Take your camera, bathing suit and picnic supplies.

Please place the cache and everything else back as you found it.

Don't forget CITO

Have a good caching day.
