Geocache Description:


This geocache is part of the US 23 Discovery Trail, a 200 mile geo-trail from Standish, Michigan in the south to Mackinaw City, Michigan in the north. Caches have been placed at significant places along this countywide corridor. You will need to answer specific questions on your passport while discovering the special locations on the sunrise side of the state of Michigan. Information and the passport can be downloaded from the US 23 Heritage Route web site under 'US-23 Discovery Trail Geocaching!' in the 'Events' tab:

http://www.us23heritageroute.org

Once you have completed 25 of the 30 + caches in this geo-trail, you can take your passport to one of the following sites during business hours: McGulpin Lighthouse, 500 Headlands Drive, Mackinaw City, Michigan or the Standish Historical Depot and Welcome Center, 107 N Main St, Standish, Michigan to pick up your souvenir tag.

Or you can mail your passport to: Denise Cline, NEMCOG,

80 Livingston Blvd Suite U-108, PO Box 457,

Gaylord, MI 49734

Note: only one tag per geocaching team name will be available. Only 150 souvenir tags were minted.

________________________________________________________________________________________

This cache is best suited for a four wheel drive vehicle, particularly in wet weather.  It is located in a cedar swamp.  A dead end gravel road leads to it.  There is small turn around near the cache, but this may be marshy in wet weather.  Unless you have a Jeep type vehicle, look at the sides of the road before you drive in very far.  You may want to consider walking in.
The cache itself is a small lock-n-lock under cover.  Please return it to where you find it.
