Geocache Description:

The adventurous can park at the Kishwaukee Gorge and take the trails in. The trails lead to an area pretty close to the cache. The cache ratings are quite accurate if you follow these directions. Located NEAR the eastern edge of Kishwaukee Gorge (NOT ON WINNEBAGO COUNTY FOREST PRESERVE PROPERTY!!!). Terrain is medium grade with loose stone footing. Not for the weak of heart (or weak knees!). .

An interesting view if you look south from cache site. Plenty of Cache In Trash Out (CITO) opportunity in the area. Bring a trash bag and please try to do your part and remove some trash on way out! (OoooO that rhymed well, kind of!)
Cache originally contained log book and Honduras cash.
Bring a pen/pencil to sign log. Cache maintenance by fellow geocachers is always appreciated!
I only know that you can approach this one from the FP to the west, utilizing trails down to river. I don't know if there's a closer route from the east.
