Logs
I always detour for a lighthouse. Sometimes they double as trigs, but not this one. The views from both vantage point are just spectacular.

Went to the Cape Liptrap lighthouse today with my grandkids who have just discovered geocaching. I think they forgot to add a picture to their log, sorry.
Excellent place to visit around here geocaching and can't believe I'm only the second GA visitor, come on people get down here you'll like it.
