Geocache Description:

HADES, brother of Zeus and Poseidon, drew lots for shares of the world, and made the worst draw. Banished to the underworld, Hades rules his domain without malice, and with absolute authority: Hades allows no subject to leave his kingdom.

Find Hades by the banks of the river Styx, where he awaits the arrival of departed souls carried across the water by Charon, his fire-eyed ferryman, who guides his craft with a long pole.

Team El Fartero presents this tribute to the mythological deities of the ancient world. They may make poor role models, but their stories are never dull and will never grow old. Take the journey and discover the Spirits that may still lurk in the moonlit wilderness, or if not there, at your local Cinema chain!

The Olympic Odyssey consists of 12 caches, each individually crafted and stocked in tribute to their divine inspiration. It is the product of many weeks of planning and preparation, and will bring an afternoon of surprise and adventure to the geocacher who seeks them. Ten of them contain a coordinate which will lead you to Mount Olympus, where the gods have prepared a fitting cornocopia to reward your valor and heroism.

Completion of the series will take about 5 hours, and requires 5 miles of hiking, with some climbing and bushwhacking. Start your journey at the posted Parking Coordinates, where you can enjoy a picnic before beginning your quest.

If you would like further information on Basswood Pond State Forest, we suggest that you go to (visit link) , where you can download a trail map, and find directions to the forest.
