Off-road Caches In Western Pa

I am looking for some caches in Western PA that would require a little "legal" off-roading. Does anyone know of any. I found Quest Masters "Elk Rock" a few weeks ago and that was a nice little trip on State Game Lands, which although an established dirt road, were illegal to drive on.

That was a fun one. Right now I can't think of many "off road" caches but there are some that are on dirt roads or fire roads. Gimmie a little bit of time to think.

 

Although temp disabled Casparis is fun.

 

Check out Liston School Road . There is some fun driving back in there.

Many of Quest Masters caches can be accessed by 4WD. Polly Takes the Plunge can be a fun 4X4 experience. You may want to drop him an email. Better yet, if your in the area, talk with him at his Upcoming Event. I know QM personally, and he is an "old school", and very proficient cacher. He favors caches with elevated terrain ratings that also have a sense of adventure! Heck, the guy drove his Dodge Colt to the North Pole!! :mad: I'm sure he could give you plenty of options.

 

I could give you some 4X4 caches in Central PA if your interested.

By off-roading, do you mean 4x4 or dirt bike/ATV? Right now, I'm looking up a few in the Alleghany National Forest near the trailheads. I've located three so far. Not sure if we ride our bikes right to them, but we can certainly ride, hunt for a cache, and then ride some more!

I have a bookmarked list of offroading caches in the greater Western PA area: CW Iams's List of Offrading Caches

 

Enjoy!  :lol:  Feel free to yet me know of any i have missed -- I have complied this list from discussions on the Tri-go yahoo group message board.

Thanks for the list. I kocked Liston School Road off the list this past weekend. It was a great cache.

Oh, I also knocked Jeep Hill Thrill off the list by making it the entire way up the hill on the second try :laughing:

 

that was a fun one also!

 

Now I just need to spend more time in the Fayette county area to find the rest of QM's.

Its not real long, but if you get in the area here's The 4x4 Hillbilly Hide.

 

E-mail me if you decide to head this way. I can place at least one more soon, and direct you to some more off-roading spots.

Chaoss,

 

Besides the fact that it took me like 15 mins to understand the hill-billy style of writing, it looks like a great cache. Gotta see what's going on in the next couple weeks and maybe make a trip up to try it out. If you can give me a few more close ones that you would recommend I might make a weekend out of it.
