Geocache Description:


I have obtained permission from the parks department to place this cache.

This cache is located within the Lake Vermillion Recreation Area and does require a State Park entrance fee to enter the park.


This is a letterbox hybrid cache. Which means that there is a RUBBER STAMP inside the cache container.
This rubber stamp MUST STAY INSIDE the cache.

There is room for a bunch of SWAG inside this cache and I started it off with a bunch of goodies.
Including a sweet FTF wooden nickle.
Remember to always TRADE UP!!


Common instructions: Please don't tear up the area in your search! Make sure you bring your own pen since there is not room for one in the cache. Make sure you replace the cache exactly as you found it. DO NOT make it any harder/easier than it was. It does not need improvement. Have fun!! Disclaimer: Always exercise common sense and caution. You assume all risks arising in connection with seeking a cache or any other related activity. Have fun and Cache On!


Known for its clear waters and abundant fish, Lake Vermillion Recreation Area is a popular area among fishermen, boaters and swimmers. During the fall, sportsmen can find waterfowl and upland game within minutes from the park. This 512-acre reservoir is located 27 miles west of Sioux Falls.

Lake Vermillion was created by impounding waters from the east fork of the Vermillion River in 1958. The river itself was first noted on an 1801 map by a French trapper who called it Otter Stream.

The word vermillion means vivid red color. Some say the stream got its name from the outcropping of red quartzite along its bank.


This cache was placed with the Permission of the South Dakota Department of Game Fish & Parks
