Geocache Description:

This cache is in an area that contains bluffs. Special equipment is not required to retrieve the cache but if you like to rapel or rock climb, those activities are available here. The terrain is rated high due to the steep "path" to get to this cache. Descent is more precarious then the ascent, becareful if it is wet. Small children should be watched closely whle here.

This cache is in the Pictures Rocks state park. The park has given me permission to place this cache. Caches in Iowa State Parks require permission. The park opens at 4:30 and closes at 10:30. The cache is an ammo box and contains goodies that are related to water. It is not a themed cache just a fun way to start.

Original contents included:

Log book
Fish wash cloths (compressed)
Shark and Lobster stuffed animals
Shell and surfboard bottle openers
and pictured rocks

Hopefully the first of many. Enjoy.

Parking can be found at N42 12.535 W091 06.111. Tree cover is thick. Will the first finders please check the coordinates.

Thanks and enjoy.
