Geocache Description:

Located on Private propety (my family owns it, so don't worry about trespassing) :^). It's off a road of M-57 near US 127. Just follow the winding paved road and you can't miss the shack. :) You can also take a small dirt road just before the tracks going north on Highway 127.


The cache is a big lock & lock container with the original contents being thumb-sized skateboards and christmas ornaments. Please sign the log book and hide it as good as you can. This is a fun area that I decided to put a cache. The old shack gives it a good theme and is near two busy roads. There are no nearby houses to worry about and it is far enough from US 27 & 57, so have fun!!

***UPDATE*** It has been brought to my attention from a family member that before this was the sugarbeet factory, it was a town by the name of Ola Corners. As a ghost town hunter, I am very excited to learn that I own a part of Gratiot County history! Please look around and picture a once bustling town of a few hundred people 100 years ago! Once you get on my property you'll see the old weigh-in building used for sugarbeets.

Former occupant of the shack's window met an unfortunate end with a lawnmower. When you pass the old shack, please give a moment of silence for old Freddy the Frog!
