Geocache Description:

This cache is a standard ammo box located off a mountain bike trail. You can get there a lot quicker by biking than you can by walking. Bushwacking is an option, but it will only slow you down.

 The cache is filled with sales rep stuff I got from work. We are bombared everyday with sales reps trying to get the doctors to prescribe their medicine. After a while we accumlates pens, pencil, rulers, calenders, notepads, mousepads, etc. Now everybody has access to this stuff. This is my most difficult cache placement so far, so good luck and I hope you enjoy!!
This area has been developed into a Mtn. Bike/Hiking trail park by local volunteers and has a great trail system in it. Its best to park at this location: N35 53.794 W083 57.108. There is another entrance to the park that would be quicker, but the gate stays closed and there is a no parking sign. If you could get someone to drop you off at this other gate it might speed things up for you. The cache is not accessible from Gateway Lane or Millsaps Way. The trailhead is at the N.E. end of the parking lot along the lakeshore. After a rain, some sections of the trail will be muddy and the Park gate will be closed at night.
There is an active railroad track just North of the park. THERE IS NO NEED TO GO ON THE RR TRACKS. The trail goes a short distance along the lakeshore and then into the woods. There are numerous trails near the cache

Note: this park has had a troubled past (intimate activities) and that caching in groups of 2-3 may be more comfortable. It is by no means a dangerous park. It has experienced a real turn around lately. Mountain Bikers and Geocachers are claiming it back as their park. Help us keep this park a family park!
Local geocachers have mapped out locations for many future caches in this park. The primary goal being to maximize the number of quality caches that can be placed in the park. Please go to this forum thread for suggested locations of future caches:
IC King Geocache Park

Did I mention that there is a lot of poison ivy off the trails in this park? Keep your bushwacking to a minimum.

Here is a rough trail map of the park:

However, I would highly recommend printing off the .pdf map available here:
