This cache is located along one of the "Backtrails" of JDSP. It can be wet at times, but during the Winter/Spring seasons, probably will have pretty dry access. Slight off-trail search is required. This cache is on "HIGH GROUND" relatively speaking...

This is one of many new TC caches placed in Jonathan Dickinson State Park for CacheApalooza 3. You will enjoy a nice hike through a Pine Flatwoods habitat to find this cache. Flatwoods have, as the name implies, a low, flat topography, but because of this and generally poor drainage, small differences in elevation result in major vegetation changes. The pine flatwoods -- typically dotted with cypress domes, cabbage palm flatwoods, marshes, and other habitats -- is the matrix that ties many other Florida ecosystems together. Common shrubby understory plants in JDSP include saw palmetto, gallberry, wax myrtle and turkey oaks. The herbaceous ground cover, dominated by wiregrass, may be sparse, or it may be very diverse in sites with open canopies and shrub cover.
