Geocache Description:

Steep banks, shallow water crossings. Will probably take several hours to complete. For the first stage, DO NOT follow the logging road. Stay in the valley.

This is the first cache places in my hometown of Morrisvale. The location is on the site of the old Morrisvale Grade School which began operation around 1926 and closed in 1974. Although the school is no longer standing, the foundations are still there.

The final two stages are in an area which is reputedly haunted by a headless woman. According to the legend, a widow was working at a sawmill in the nearby town of Breece in the early 1900s. She tripped and hit her neck on the saw blade. She is now supposed to live in the rocks across the road from my house. Although I have not seen her, I know many sane people who say they have. So watch for ghosts!

Please do not disturb the people in the white house nearby. They are very nice, but elderly. There is nothing on that side of the valley anyway.

The signal can be a problem with many trees, rocks, and water. Hints have been given for each stage because of that. If you get to the area, the hints are specific.

Be VERY carfeul if there has been rain! The area is damp and quite slick in some places.

Congratulations to Wvhunter74, SSPG, and EliJoMikMiNi for co-FTF!
