Geocache Description:


 

I heard a rumor the other day about a guy that was fishing at Draper lake. The rumor goes that he got there just after sun up to do a little fishing. He walked out onto the pier, got to the end and setup his gear.

He was fishing with minnows and using 4 fishing poles. After about an hour of sitting around and not getting a single bite,  all four of his poles suddenly bent over. Well, he was in awe and did not know which one to grab first. At that moment two of the poles snapped in half and the line broke. A second later the other two broke free and went into the water. The man was shocked. What in the world could be that big. And that's when he saw it.

A 7 foot alligator, and it was coming over to the edge of the pier! Well he couldn't believe it. He leaned over the edge, still not believing, too get a better look. That is when the alligator jumped up to grab the man. He jerked back just in time. But the alligator had managed to grab the mans shirt. He thought for a second it was going to pull him in. But he was able to get the shirt to rip off of his back. The man then took off, leaving the rest of his gear, jumped into his car and drove away. The fishing pier is now known as Alligator Pier. Now I heard this rumor through my dad who heard it from a drunk at the bar who heard it from his sister who heard from her boyfriend who heard it from his first cousin who heard it from his daughter who heard it from some girl at school. So I am sure it is true. So I just had to go find pier to hide a cache for all you adventurous types out there.

 

You are looking for a micro hidden some where out there. Watch for alligators as you try to find it. You can drive very close to the cache location, if you can find the right road. Not quite a park and grab, but close.
