Geocaching in the Allegheny National Forest will take you to some of the greatest places in nature. Enjoy the journey!
These are unpaved forest access roads, so use own judgement in snowy weather. Always be aware of hunting season and others using this multi-use area of the ANF! Parking Areas are few and far between. There are wide areas here and there along the roads. Use good judgement about pulling over as far as you can and putting on vehicle flashers.
Cache container donated by Chris K in Geauga. He won it at the ASP Geobash raffle. Nice little Pelican Box.
Due to the heavy tree canopy in the forest, your GPSr may appear to lie to you! Taking that into consideration, I rated Difficulty a bit higher. Your Geo-sense will be helpful here! In case you are still working on developing that ~ Hints are added also!! While I did not see any snakes, ticks, poison ivy or excessive thorns ~ you are in the woods where awareness and caution are always good ideas.
Be safe and have fun in the Allegheny National Forest.
