Caches in Sylvania Wilderness Area?

[Grandma & Grandpa]

Do any of you know if caches are permitted in the Sylvania Wilderness Area in Michigan’s U.P.? I remember seeing one or two posted up there some time back, but now I cannot find them listed. Sylvania is part of the Ottawa National Forest. We will be up there in April with the canoes and sons and grandkids, and would like to do some geocaching… I can think of some awesome spots up there to put a cache!

Thanks for any info and/or opinions. Gramps

I personally don’t know, but if someone else here doesn’t, you could always check with the Michigan Geocaching Organization (http://www.mi-geocaching.org/) since that area is in Michigan.

I was just browsing the cache map, and see there are some in the Ottawa National Forest:

Burned Out – http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=88297

Nature’s Gas – http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=88281

You could look at either of those, then click on “find nearby caches” to find more.

But as for whether they are allowed…. That’s out of my realm of knowledge….

Such a beautiful area there – maybe I’ll just end up finding some of your caches there this summer! 😉
