Geocache Description:

This cache is in tribute to MaxB on the River, our forerunner as Geocaching Coordinators at Fernwood. You are looking for a miniature version of GCK8ZV, MaxB's most iconic cache. You will need to go a little ways off-trail to retrieve this cache, but not farther than 20 feet.
