Greatland Reviewer: Hello:

Time for some Fall clean-up before the snowflakes fly and folks go into hibernation.

This cache page has been archived due to the lack of a timely response to a prior Reviewer Note and/or because the Cache Owner has not been online for several months. If the owner would like to have it reinstated, please contact me through my profile as soon as possible before another cache gets placed nearby.

Please note that unarchiving a cache page requires it to go through the same review process as a newly proposed cache, using the cache placement guidelines currently in effect.

Geocache Description:

The Primrose Campground on Kenai Lake is set along the lower reaches of Porcupine Creek. In addition to great camp spots, there is parking for hikers and boaters, restroom facilities, and wonderful picnic areas along the beach where the creek empties into the lake. This cache location is accessible to everyone, and should provide enough cover to avoid the gazes of the unknowing. Be sure to hide it again well.

The north trailhead for the Lost Lake Trail is at the west end of the campground loop; parking for the hike is down by the restrooms. A small concrete boat landing is a great place to access the south end of Kenai Lake and the three boat-in campgrounds along the lake. The mountain views from this lakeside spot are stupendous year-round, with Dall sheep often seen on Mount Andy Simons and Sheep Mountain. Fishermen catch lake trout and rainbows right from the shore.

The cache is a narrow ammo box. It has been loaded with a great number of items that could be useful to a hiker headed up the Primrose Trail to Lost Lake, or simply interesting to those who would like to get more information about that trail and other trails in the Chugach National Forest.

This cache is one end of Ridgeseeker and Suzaru's Lost Lake Series. There are a total of five caches in the Series. The Series is designed to work from either end of the trail; a cache-seeking hiker or mountain biker must get information from the trailhead cache at either end to find the next hide up the trail. Then, only by using numbers contained in the intermediate cache will the true location of the Lost Lake cache be revealed.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to record both intermediate cache locations while at the trailhead cache so that you can get all the finds on the way through.

A First Finders Prize for the completion of the entire Lost Lake Series will be awarded: Burgers for two at the Seward Salmon Bake, provided, or hosted, by Ridgeseeker and Suzaru.
