The Great Northwoods Treasure Hunt Recently created as a joint effort between the Boulder Junction, St. Germain and Rhinelander Chambers of Commerce, this hunt is available for both experienced geocachers and those who are new to the sport. Find the 18 new area caches and track your find with a downloadable CacheCard.
1888 Was a Good Year Discover treasure in a century-old railroad shed that is the only remaining railroad building still standing on the Bearskin trail.
The Goat Lady's Home Uncover treasure and the history of the infamous Selma Wikkins, a local squatter who lived under a small bridge with her 20 goats.
Big Arb Ruins This hunt will lead you on a beautiful walk to a peninsula of Big Arbor Vitae Lake. Once a place of many vacation homes and cabins, all that is left today are cement foundations and a rock stairway to the lake. Accessible by foot or by boat.
Eagle's Nest You will need a boat or kayak to reach the island where this treasure is found. In addition to the cache, you will find an up-close view of an eagle's nest.
