+huskerrich2000 Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 I think eatonville is Minnesota, and it wouldn't surprise, if there was there. Quote Link to comment
Tonka_Boy Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 We've done several geocaches that were accessible only by water craft - some here in Minnesota, a few over in Wisconsin while on vacation. Let me say that they are water craft accessible in the summer. Reading the cache logs reaveals that some folks walk across the ice to score the finds in the winter. There's not going to be a list of geocaches accessible only by watercraft. Part of the fun of geocaching is not having a list. You'll just have to do a zip code search of the area and find the geocaches, just as if they were on land. And where there are no geocaches on the water, you can hide some. Quote Link to comment
+Night Stalker Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 there is one on an island in the middle of Lake McCall in Idaho. Did this one in an underinflated rubber raft with Renegade Knight a few years ago. Made for a really interesting adventure. Quote Link to comment
scottbustech Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 eatonville is in washington state thanks for the replies ill have too just hope for a cache that lets cordinants start at a boat launch just seems a cross referance too lakes would be doable Quote Link to comment
+The Pathman Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 There is one over here on the Columbia River that requires a boat. It's near Pateros. I have also seen several others scattered around the state bus as I don't have a boat I haven't bothered to search them out Quote Link to comment
+Lakebum Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 This is a bookmark list of caches in your area that require a boat to get to. This bookmark list is maintained by a cacher in your area called "alciato". Have fun. Water caches are my favorites..... small boat caches Quote Link to comment
+Rattlebars Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I have one in Western PA just over the Ohio line that recommends the use of a boat or canoe. Other paths to the cache are available but are very hard to traverse according to the logs. I did not place nor have I maintained this one on foot, always with a canoe on the Shenango River. No one has yet logged it by boat. Won't help you out much tho! GCXKKQ Quote Link to comment
