Bridal Veil Falls Mystery Cache
slackpacker: I am archiving this cache after it went missing twice within a couple months; [I was going to just rehide in a new location, but then it wouldn't be an offset cache classified as a "mystery" cache, so better to just archive and start fresh with a "traditional" Look for the new cache soon . . . .] Thanks to all that looked for this one!

A park-n-grab near scenic Bridal Veil Falls.
Bridal Veil Falls
The coordinates above will bring you to the parking area for Bridal
Veil Falls, located on NC Hwy 64 a couple of miles west of
Highlands, NC. The cache is located within 30 yards of the
coordinates, so this ends-up a "puzzle" cache.
Anyone that has driven this route knows the falls - at one point,
"old" Hwy. 64 passed on the route directly beneath the falls. In
December 2003, rock fall closed the road to vehicular traffic under
the falls, but in July 2007 local businesses removed the large rock
as a public service, reopening the route.
From the coordinates you'll see the waterfall, a splashpool, a
shallow cave behind the falls, and the steep overhang; which way is
the cache? I'll just say that you will probably want a flashlight .
. .
You are looking for an atypical container. This area gets a lot of
visitors, so use some stealth. Bring a pen/pencil, and please
re-hide at least as well as you found it.
Thanks, and have fun!
