Geocache Description:

Camping available at 49n58.52 by 121w13.36 , which is a provincial campsite near the summit of Stoyoma Mtn. near Merritt B.C. . Four-wheel drive or equivalent required to access the last two miles to Lake . Hike on trail last two miles to geocache reaching an altitude of 6300 ft.

The Conair Geocache on Stoyoma Mtn. consists of a sealed ten litre white plastic bucket containing the following items;a Log Book with Photographs as well as, old paper two dollar bill , 2 canadian flag pins, Dutch collecter spoon ,cows tooth, cook book ,4 silver fifty cent coins,softball ,Knotts Berry farm crushed penny ,santa wine cork plus many other items .This could also be considered a virtual cache as visitors will find out and I await there questions as to what happened here . Access is ussually summer and fall only via the Prospect Creek forest service from Highway #8 near Merritt B.C. . From the Cabin Lake campsite there is no need for the hard scramble over the mountain as indicated by your GPS . Follow the trail from the far end of the lake to the geocache site, this part takes my family about two hours each way . This is a place of legends , but very few visitors and the vistas from this location are unparrallelled as you can see Mount Baker in Washington State approx. 100 miles away .
