Geocache Description:

This cache is located near the Kaymoor Trailhead on Fayette Station Road in New River Gorge National River. Please stay on the designated trail. You do not have to venture off the trail to find this cache.

Directions to Fayette Station Road: Take US 19 north across the Bridge and make the second right after the bridge onto Lansing-Edmond Road. After 1/2 mile, turn right onto CR 82. CR 82 branches to the left after a short distance and takes you to the bottom of the gorge.

The Coal Heritage GeoTrail is a geocaching trail consisting of sixteen caches within the National Coal Heritage Area in southern West Virginia. Along the GeoTrail, geocachers will travel three scenic byways: the Coal Heritage Trail, the Paint Creek Scenic Trail, and the Midland Trail. In each cache, geocachers will find special clues that will help them complete a puzzle found in the official Coal Heritage GeoTrail brochure. Geocachers can then bring their completed brochures to a redemption site to receive a commemorative Coal Heritage GeoTrail patch. Visit www.paintcreekscenictrail.com/geo.html for more information and to download the official brochure.

“The fundamental purpose of the National Park Service (NPS) is to ‘conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and the wild life therein and to provide for the enjoyment of the same in such manner and by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations. (16 U.S.C. 1).’ Placing a cache on NPS lands without a permit is a violation of NPS regulations. These regulations are intended to protect the fragile environment and the natural, cultural and historical resources found in parks. You are ultimately responsible for the cache, so please make sure you know and understand the rules and regulations.”
