Letha House Park is located in scenic Chatham Township. The Letha House Foundation was instrumental in providing funding for the acquisition of the land to create this park. On the east side, it is crossed by a winding stream which is a tributary of the Black River known locally as Little Sweetly Creek. An observatory is located on the west side and is operated by the Cuyahoga Astronomical Association. The dark skies of Letha House Park provide excellent conditions for viewing the heavens in all seasons. Watch for announcements of public viewing programs at this site. Another building near the observatory has been recently renovated and is available for reservation. The lake is stocked for fishing and is catch and release only.

The trail to the cache can be accessed from the east entrance parking lot (coordinates listed below). A regular sized container is located within about 15 feet of the trail, so please do not bushwhack. Please remember to cache in and trash out. Park closes at dark. Round trip distance from parking lot to cache is approximately 1 mile.

This cache will expire on November 30, 2011.
