THIS IS AN ALL SEASONS CACHE. The paths are plowed in the winter.

Recently, my friends and I have taken to walking on a regular basis. This beautiful spot is one of our favorites to meander along so I've decided to do a shorter virtual multi-cache to bring other cachers to this beautiful and historic area. After you have completed the five parts, feel free to wander further along to see more of this scenic path. All parts of this cache can be reached by foot, bike, or boat.

The coordinates above take you to site #1. There is plenty of parking along the street or in two public lots nearby. Short term docking is also available. Although accessible all year round, this area is most busy and picturesque in the late spring and summer months. Once you have finished, email me with the answers to the following questions and only then may you post this as a find. DO NOT put any answers in your logs as this will spoil things for future cachers. All logs without an email will be deleted.

It was just warm enough today for this to be a really nice walk along the canal. Thanks for the cache and the history. We really enjoyed it! TFTC!

I picked a cold day for a stroll along the Ditch. My hands got so stiff that I had trouble writing down my answers. But I enjoyed it anyways. Email sent. Thanks for the history!

Nice hike along the canal today but the wind was just a bit sharp. Email on the way.
