As you look out across the grasslands from this cache you can see what much of southern Wisconsin looked like before the Europeans came. Hundreds of years ago much of southern Wisconsin was prairie or oak savannas, the brush and other trees kept at bay by the frequent fires that burned through the area. Once the farmers settled the land and the fires were controlled the trees and brush grew on the hillsides, creating the Wisconsin landscape that is familiar to us now. After finding the cache, take a moment to look out across the land and imagine what this would have looked like when it was one big grass sea.
You're looking for a good sized, cammoed, Lock N Lock filled with started swag. Please replace the cache hidden as well or better than when found.
