Victoria Bryant State Park Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Geocaching HQ Admin: “Georgia State Parks has decided to archive all of the existing caches on their current GeoTour. They will be launching a new updated GeoTour, that will be going live Monday February, 8th.

If you are still completing the old system, have no fear, you can still complete our old GeoTour while starting our new one. The stamps are no longer in the caches, however we printed out the corresponding letters and pasted them inside the new geocache boxes. Write these letters down on your old passport and email a picture to ParksRFun@dnr.ga.gov to receive the coins for the old GeoTour.”

Geocache Description:


Victoria Bryant State Park

Cache information:

Steward: joebids
Park: Victoria Bryant State Park
Cache type: Traditional
Coordinates: N34° 17.665' W83° 10.077'
Difficulty: 1.5
Terrain: 1.5
Cache Description: You will be looking for an ammo can container moderately hidden.

This is a fun park with many facilities to see and enjoy. So bring your sense of adventure because to get to the parking coordinates (N34° 17.691' W83° 09.845'), you will want to take your vehicle across a designated Creek Ford. Please do not splash anyone hanging around the ford area as that will not look favorably for us as Geocachers.

At the parking coordinates there is access to the ‘Perimeter Trail’ that will take you to the cache hide. Your hike for this cache will only be roughly one half mile round trip on easy terrain. The container is located about 100 feet off of the trail where you can approach it by numerous entry points without forming any social trails. Please re-hide the cache well when you are through. After you have discovered the cache, signed the log, made your trades and stamped your game piece, there is a nice cascading water fall to discover and picnic by at about 1,300 feet to the North East at N34° 17.800' W83° 09.610' if you are inclined. Enjoy your time here and happy Caching.

Georgia State Parks GeoTour:

Geocaching is an outdoor adventure game similar to a treasure hunt played with a GPS device. The basic idea is to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, take a trinket from the cache, leave something of greater or equal value in return for the next person and then share your experiences online. There are over a million active geocaches around the world and now with the Georgia State Parks GeoTour you can “Get Out. Get Dirty. Get Fit.“ and go geocaching in Georgia state parks.

Steps to the Georgia State Parks GeoTour:

1. Obtain a Georgia State Park GeoTour PassPort from any park or historic site or download a PDF from GaParksGeocaching.com

2. Go to Geocaching.com create a log-in and find the GPS coordinates and more information for the Georgia State Parks GeoTour locations.

3. Start your search and locate one or all caches using a hand-held GPS unit. The cache containers are sealed ammo boxes labeled as a Georgia State Parks & Historic Sites geocache. Caches are located in 42 Georgia state parks and state historic parks.

4. When you find a GeoTour cache, log your name and any comments on the logbook inside the cache and stamp your PassPort grid sheet with the unique stamp for that specific park.

5. Be sure to follow the Leave No Trace guidelines – GeorgiaStateParks.org/LeaveNoTrace

6. Follow the Traveling Gophers. There are 58 Georgia State Park & Historic Sites TravelBugs® moving around the country. Click here to see where the travel gopher for this park is now. Be on the lookout for them and help them get to a new destination.
7. If you’re quick, there is a “First-to-Find” special prize.

8. Find one of the “endangered” gopher stuffed toys in 10 of the caches and it’s yours to keep and protect.

9. Complete specific numbers of caches to get a custom Geo-Coin. Bring your stamped PassPort into the park’s Visitor Center and receive a voucher for your coin.


With 15 completed caches you are eligible for a bronze level coin
With 30 completed caches you are eligible for a silver level coin
With 40 completed caches you are eligible for a gold level coin
Bonus Caches:

Disclaimer to New Geocachers:
Please join us in playing! All are welcome who observe and obey the rules. Please do not move or vandalize the container. Replace the cache like or better than you found it and when you leave, and make sure the cache is completely covered. Please do not remove the rubber stamp from the ammo can, this is a essential game piece for cachers accepting the GeoTour. The real treasure is just finding the container and sharing your thoughts with everyone who finds it. Pick up a GeoTour Passport at any Park Visitor Center.
