Stairway to Heaven (Battle Creek) Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Centris: This cache managed to go missing two years in a row around medallion time. [:(!] I always have a private laugh about whoever has taken it and thought they had won the prize.

This park and this staircase especially is one of my favorite caches. I just love the walk and the views from up here. I am very sorry to see this one go.

The Ramsey County parks systems annual time limit for this cache is fast approaching and I can't justify replacing it for just two months time in the snow, so with extreme sadness I am archiving it.

Thanks for all the nice comments and email about this cache - I always appreciated it. [:)]
