Geocache Description:

This letterbox hybrid cache has been placed in the Fairmont Park Area. It is a regular camo ammo can hidden by the trails that run between the Kansas River bank and the dog park area.

The Manhattan area does not count yet with a letterbox hybrid. We thought it will be nice to create one and also dedicate it to my dog Jewel. She was a blue merle Aussie. An amazing dog but most of all a great friend and loyal companion.


This cache is dedicated to Jewel, my Australian shepherd. She loved to run and chase. You will find her picture inside of the cache. She had a lovely face and a white mark on one of her eyes.

We put the cache in the dog park also because we love to come here with our dogs too. This cache also wants to promote one of the two dog parks in the Riley County area. The other one is in the Tuttle Creek Park Area.

We like to keep the theme of this cache K-9 related. Inside you will find all sort of chewing toys, stuffed animals, squeaky rubber balls, retrieving tennis balls. Please trade only dog toys and dogs related swag.

Geocachers please only use the log book provided to log your find if you don't have a stamp. If you log caches with a stamp please be welcome to use the letterbox stamp book.

In a different ziplock bag we have provided a dog paw stamp, an ink pad and a special white pages journal for the letterbox to collect stamps from visitors.

Finally this letterbox hybrid cache is the home of my Rubik's Cube. I am trusting my dog Jewel to take care of it. Inside of the cache you will find a Rubik's Cube with numbers on it. Solve the cube to get the coordinates for another three mysterious caches that I have hidden in the Manhattan Area.

RUBIK'S CUBE SOLUTION GUIDE

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THE RUBIK'S CUBE NOR TRADE IT FOR SWAG. Once you have resolved the cube, save/write down the coordinates, re-unscramble it and put it back in the cache. Remember that once the cube has been solved you still have to unscramble the coordinates using the three mysterious caches pages.

Fairmont Park is a unique riverfront site with abundant natural habitat, wide open spaces, and large trees.  When fully developed, the park will be an invaluable asset which will allow the community to embrace the river and enjoy the recreational benefits such a park can offer.
