The cache is an old army ammo box. It is hidden in an area of heavy trees, so the GPS tends to wander in, out and around. It is not too hard to see when you get there, and it is at the base of a large tree with some debris around it. Be careful not to move the debris since it helps to hide the cache. Some wood sits on top; you can move it to get the cache and place it back on top when you are done. From the cache, you can go another 500 yards to the NE to the Marietta Paper Mill Ruins from the Civil War and the creek. It is kind of neat. I am glad to see that Geocachers have had a good time when they are here. Happy One-Year Anniversary to Geocaching.
There are many trails here, use the Initial Parking Area Waypoint to get back to your car if you get lost.
DO NOT PARK ON THE ROAD!
By the way, when you get there you will discover what SOAP means... my gift to the successful Geocacher.
**February 14, 2002 NOTE: This cache is NOT about bar soap. It is a history cache. The meaning of soap can be found on historical markers near the entrance of the parking lot. Bring traditional Geocaching trading items. PLEASE do not bring bar soap to this cache unless you plan on taking bar soap from the cache. I have removed some of the bar soap and left the soap from unique places.
