This cache has been archived.

jonsom: I was thinking about replacing the cache for the Halloween Hoopla Event yesterday, but never got around to do it. This cache got muggled once and the hide area changed from when I first hid it. Hope everyone had fun in this great park.

Geocache Description:

Cache is located in the Crosby Farm Nature Area. Park hours are Sunrise to 10:00 pm. There are good paths that bring you close to the cache. The terrain level is a 2.5 because of the distance from the parking area.

Cache is a small 6" X 7" bulk food container with a 3.5" screw top opening. This cache was named Black & Orange and was stolen. Replaced in a new location on 22-Mar-2003. Please hide cache as good or better than how you found it.

Please leave the pencil sharpener with the log book.

There are two path's from the parking lot to this cache the lower path follows the lake shore and the high path is a little longer, more winding, but worth the hike for the views. To get to the high path from the parking lot go to N44 53.964 W93 09.713 then to N44 54.009 W93 09.751 the other end of the high path is at N44 54.114 W93 09.469. You can also cross the lake at N44 53.962 W93 09.411 to N44 54.087 W93 09.512.

On the way check out the water falls at N44 54.297 W93 09.196, the 2 caves and the goofy trees at N44 54.369 W93 09.041 in the area. There are also 2 large beaver houses very near.

The cache is located a short distance off the path, but could be in view of the path, so be careful when seeking this cache. Don't go off the path too soon or you will be bushwacking. If you walk around there is an easy way to the cache.
