Walk through the woods or walk along the waters edge. A little hilly through the woods.
This is the grave (Mausoleum)of SUPER CHICKEN.
Do not take the Chicken or his little metal guard.
This was the friend of Redneck Frog. .30 m away.
Large tool box size cache.
The Super Chicken Theme Lyrics
When you find yourself in danger,
When you’re threatened by a stranger,
When it looks like you will take a lickin’,
(puk, puk, puk, puk)
There is someone waiting,
Who will hurry up and rescue you,
just Call for Super Chicken!
(puk, ack!)
Jerry Seinfeld referenced Super Chicken in a “Bee Movie TV Junior”, in which he recites the Super Chicken theme song.

Indian legend has it War Hill was used to settle the disputes of local Indian tribes. They would come here to battle. The winner was always right. Once in a while you can hear the russle of a running Indian. At night you might hear moans.

Located in a lakeside park. Great place to have picnic, take a walk or just go fishing. You can get to this one by land or by water. Not a bad walk by either.
The name comes from the cottontail rabbit that I’ve seen two different times, once while scouting the area, the other time while hiding the cache.
Hide back good…..
Have fun… C.I.T.O.

You’ll find an ammo box cache on an island of Lake Lanier. The terrain rating is high due to the fact that you need a boat to reach the island, but overgrowth & hills are minimal. It’s a short walk from a good beach landing located at
N 34 16.756
W 083 56.394
Watch out for underwater obstacles!
If someone is camping at those coordinates you could approach the cache from another part of the island, but we didn’t scout any other landing locations.
No puzzle, just get there & find the cache!

Great little picnic spot is nearby so you may want to pack a lunch and enjoy this area after you find Booty Island Cache.
After 7 months of geocaching I’ve finally placed my 1st geocache into the wild. I hope you enjoy this one! Strictly speaking by geoccaching rules this is a 1/5 due to the special equipment required (a boat might be useful). But a dedicated geocacher could probably swim to it so maybe really isn’t a 1/5, more like a 1/3.
The cache is a standard ammo box and I started this one out with the following booty: Log Book, Pen, Pencil, American Hero Travel Bug, RR X-ing magnet, 5-in-1 Survival aid, Compass, Tape Measure, set of AA bateries for a weak GPS, Picture Frame, Blue Thomas the tank engine key chain, handmade mini bird house, teeny tiny lizard, Lego toy, and a matchbox van.
WARNING to boaters: Coast line is very rocky be careful if you try to beach especially if water is high.

easy terrain but requires a little walking
Cache was place on campus with the permission of the Public Safety Department. If you get a hassle from a staff member just tell them you are on a GPS treasure hunt for a GIS class project. Even though this is listed as a regular cache it is only about as deep as a deck of cards. Please choose cache items accordingly.

Elachee Nature Center has three “Discover Nature Packs”. There is a Plant Pack, an Animal Pack, and a GPS Pack. The GPS Pack is designed for kids at the 6th through 8th grade levels, though a precocious adult might just manage.
The posted coords are of the Elachee Nature Center’s Gift Shop, which is where the “GPS Pack” can be checked out. The Nature Center is open from 10 am to 5 pm Monday through Saturday, closed on Sundays. It will take you a leisurely hour to complete your mission, so plan accordingly. Since you’ll be handling paper and pencils to take notes, doing this on a rainy day is not recommended.
You can leave your GPS in the car, as the GPS Pack includes a Garmin Geko. Because of the value of the GPS and other items in the nature pack you’ll be asked to leave a credit card or driver’s license when you sign out the GPS Pack. The items will be inventoried upon your return, so don’t loose them! You can use your own GPS, but the little Geko has the coordinates of all the waypoints already programmed into it. Our donations at the 2004 GGA Challenge held at Elachee helped pay for this little GPS, so see how it works.
What is a “GPS Pack”? Well, it’s a fairly large fanny pack in which you’ll find a notebook, pencils, the GPS, instructions for using the GPS, and all the tools and equipment you’ll need to conquer each stage of the challenge and proceed on to the next. You cannot log this cache without checking out the GPS Pack, as it contains items even a well equipped geocacher will not have. You’ll be hiking on a loop trail right behind the Nature Center. Of Elachee’s seven trails this is one of the less physically challenging, but it does have some steep places, so be careful.
You’ll visit a series of waypoints along the trail to observe the environment and gather clues. If you’ve done everything correctly you’ll be able to unlock the combination lock on the ammo box in the gift shop and log your find.
Tammy of Elachee Nature Center and I used the Geko to mark the waypoints you’ll be visiting, and you’ll see that Tammy did a great job of putting together the booklet of waypoints, clues, information, and questions that you’ll be answering. No waypoint averaging was possible with the little Geko, but the clues for each stage are such that you should have no problems if you stay on the trail. Have fun, but if you can’t open the ammobox don’t yell at the gift shop volunteers! They don’t have the combination and can’t help you. If you’re like me you probably transposed some numbers and will have to try three times before the lock pops open.
If you’ve enjoyed this and other caches at Elachee please become an Elachee Volunteer. Join me and others on the first Saturday of each month as we do trail relocation and bridge building under the guidance of Preserve Manager Cynthia Taylor. Alternately, the third Saturday of the month is also devoted to volunteers helping maintain Elachee’s trail system. Thanks! ~erik~
