Geocache Description:

As the name says you will be CLIMBING UP A WATERFALL
EXTREME CARE IS NEEDED, not a place for young children, the ROCKS are VERY SLIPPERY, the DANGER IS REAL. The 3 is for the climb up and the fact that the rocks can be very slippery. The waterfall is located down Mt. Sicker road behind Russell's Farm market

This cache is probably only accessible in the dryer weather.

I don't recommend trying to get it once the rains start though it will be in place all year long.I also don't recommend trying to get this cache in the dark.

You will be crossing a river to start with so be prepared to get your feet wet. I usually go up alone (with Bandit) but I recommend going with a buddy or at least telling someone where you have gone. You do have cell phone coverage while your there.

There is a trail to the left of the waterfall slightly in the brush that is where I go up, you will never make it if you try to go up the middle of the falls.

GPS is spotty but once you're at the top stay in the gully, I put pink flagging tape along the way.

The cache is located in the wide part of the gully two pieces of flagging (in the same tree on different branches) mark that you are close. You can see these as soon as you are on the top of the second, smaller fall.

I'm 5'8" if you are much more vertically challenged than I (5'4" or less) you may have difficulty reaching the cache. The cache itself is camo painted and is not covered in anyway.
