Maumee State Forest Geocache Permit Info

Post by Handyman-N-Fam »

I was encouraged to post this information on here, all in one post, so it would be easy to find. This should simplify things for those of you wanting to place a cache in Maumee State Forest.


Here is the official Ohio DNR Division of Forestry Geocache Policy.


Here is the scanned copy of the map of the boundaries of the Maumee State Forest.

An application for a permit can be picked up at the Headquarters, on County Road D, between County Roads 3 and 4, in Fulton County. :D

In another classic case of stupidity, decided on container & location for our first MSF hide today, then realized many miles past we forgot to stop for a permit.
At some point we hafta get the whole geocaching thing fully understood by the humans of our team.

A decision has been made to allow a maximum of 5 active State Forest cachers per individual. I have now reached my limit.

There is plenty of space left. Take advantage of this opportunity to make a placement in one of the few remaining wooded areas available to us.

If anyone needs info on how to fill out the forms and where to email them I would be glad to help.

I have decided to only hunt the "forest" in mid day. deer hunters typically aren't there at that time.

Crappers!
Mina insisted on finding a spot to hide another in the Forest, but we forgot to drop by the HQ.
Isn't there a scan or PDF link to the form to fill-out and send in somewhere on this site?
Help!
