Geocache Description:

Peanut butter jar at the highest point on this peninsula.

This cache is placed at the top of what I believe to be the highest hill on this peninsula. At about 361' above sea level, you're 145' above the normal lake level when standing at the cache site. Although the lake shore is only about 1/10 of a mile away, you can't see much of the lake due to the trees.

If you come by water (across from Horseshoe Island), you'll only have a couple hundred yards to walk, but with a 145' elevation gain. If you come by land, it's about 1.65 miles by air from the nearest parking area (see the Three's Company cache listing for access/parking information) - mostly on an old road bed, but there's a stretch that requires some relatively easy bushwhacking. There are only moderate ups and downs along the way - the 3 terrain rating is purely due to distance.

** CAUTION ** This cache is on gamelands. Please take appropriate precautions (e.g. wearing blaze orange) during hunting season.
