The original cache here was archived and is being revived by an
effort to to keep scenic and beautiful cache locations in Arkansas
active, which has been spearheaded by BackpacknJack. A big thank
you to "CacheMates" also for recommending this location.
The Brushy Creek recreational area offers camping and picnicking
opportunities without the usual crowds. Lake Ouachita and other
outdoor activities are a short drive away. The area boasts a
pavilion, restrooms,campgrounds, as well as a playground and
volleyball court.
To access the trail park in the parking area provided for hikers
to the right of the entrance of the recreational area. This area is
open even when the gate is closed. Walk across the bridge, make
sure to enjoy the view of Brushy Creek, and head for the stairs.
The cache location is a short hike down the trail and offers a
great view of the creek as well as interesting fungi, mosses, and
geology. Please be sure to rehide the cache as well or better than
you found it so others may enjoy this area as much as we hope you
have. Remember to CITO so we can show appreciation for all the hard
work that goes into maintaining these wonderful areas and above all
Have Fun!
