Opossum Overlook Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Lego Crew: We checked the location last night, and indeed the tree where this cached had been hidden was recently removed by IC Parks & Rec. Not sure why though, as it was still a viable tree.

It is generally better to post a "Needs Maintenance" log instead of a "Needs Archived" log though. Unless of course, one's goal is to not make friends.

Geocache Description:


A smaller, family-friendly micro located in an out-of-the-way part of lower City Park, Iowa City. This somewhat unique cache is log only; bring a pen.

As Finance Guy was placing this cache, he almost placed his hand right where an opossum was taking a nap overlooking the Iowa River. We were both startled by the encounter. Once the initial adrenaline died down, we made peace and went our separate ways.

City Park features a public outdoor swimming pool, numerous picnic areas, nice playgrounds, bocce courts, small amusement park with five different rides for smaller children, tennis courts, baseball diamonds, a scenic bike path, and an outdoor theater.

Parking is available to the west in Lower City Park or Upper City Park. Parking is not allowed along Park Road. Park hours are from 6:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.

Hunt this cache at your own risk, and most importantly, have fun!
