It's a Stumping Ground Traditional Cache

This cache is temporarily unavailable.

Chuck Walla: Hello Nature Lover 62,

Geocaching HQ uses a calculation called Health Score which rates caches to identify those that might need attention from the cache owner. Emails are sent by Geocaching HQ to the cache owners of low scoring caches to encourage them to check on their caches. To learn more about the Health Score and what can affect your cache's Health Score, I recommend that you read this Help Center article (link).

Based upon its Health Score, this cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as one that may need attention. You should have received an email about this some time ago.

I see no evidence that you have done anything in response to this email. Therefore, I am temporarily disabling this cache until you, the owner, can check on its status. After checking the cache and doing any necessary maintenance, you can click on the “enable listing” button on the top of the cache page to reactivate it. You do not have to contact me to do it for you.Also, please post an Owner Maintenance log after you have checked on your cache.

NOTE: If your cache is actually there, you might consider raising the Difficulty rating on it, as it may be much harder to find than the Difficulty rating shown on your cache page.

Please be aware that if you do not take action to address the issue with your cache within 30 days of the date of this log, or at least post a note to your cache page that you intend to do so, it will be archived at the direction of Geocaching HQ.

Sincerely,

Chuck Walla

Geocache Description:

A short hike from the Collins Creek parking area near the JFK campground at Greer's Ferry Lake. Cross a shallow creek where you will have a nice view of some small but beautiful cascading falls. Be careful, the water is not deep but very cold! Updated March 31,2007 there was LOTS and LOTS of POISON IVY enroute the cache site. Wear long pants and beware!!!

The original cache was a Rubbermaid container containing the log book, an unregistered TB for FTF, a pencil, Balikbayan TB, two toy cars, foreign coins, referigerator magnet from Philippines and fishing flys. If you go to coordinates 35 30.855N and 091 59.373W you will be approximately 120 feet from the cache and enjoying a nice view of the falls. We saw several Brook Trout in the pool. Lots of sticker vines and a little poison ivy.
*** Congratulations Woodwalker9 for being FTF. He was FTF but didn't take the TB. ***
***Congratulations to Geezer Veazey (second to find) and his muggle pal. Enjoy the TB***
