Geocache Description:

Awesome 600'+ elevated view of the Sandy Creek area of Lake Martin near Smith Mountain Fire Tower. Look down from this high bluff on green timber islands surrounded by teal water with an occasional mark of white wake from water craft. Boat required to reach my entry point, and steep hike to ridge, but new trails make the visit easier.

Cache is located near the pinnacle of the bluff. Container is a standard ammo box. The Cherokee Ridge Alpine Trail association has created trails to access the area that are more convenient than when this cache was originally established, but for posterity you could enter the peninsula at SHORE waypoint, hike straight up the hill, and once you reach the ridge go left to the highest point to reach BLUFF waypoint as it was originally placed. This was a favorite spot of mine when I was a teenager growing up in the area. The I hope you enjoy the view and appreciate the undeveloped areas of the lake.
