Geocache Description:

EDIT JAN 2017 - BEWARE! Almost 9yrs after hidden, this cache is overgrown and no longer the friendly walk it once was! END EDIT We hid this cache in the hopes that others will be able to enjoy the company of family and friends while appreciating these woods and of course, logging another smiley!

The cache is hidden in the 25 acre Henrich Woods. However, parking (coords below) and trailhead are located in the 4+ acre Johnson Woods which abuts Henrich Woods.

11/11/16 UPDATE:This cache is 8 years old and the area has changed substantially since we hid it! Apparently the parcel receives very few visitors these days and the trails that were once apparent are no longer in place. Therefore, we are upgrading the terrain to 4 due to the amount of bushwhacking currently required!

PLEASE REFER TO THE MAP BELOW and locate the trail into Henrich woods, as noted on map by red dotted arrows. The Johnson Woods are not deep and you could easily cross private property. We don't want to call any negative attention to geocaching, so let's keep the neighbors happy! :)

Following the main trails will bring you most of the way, with some bushwacking near the end. Initial cache is stocked mostly with kid stuff but any trade items are welcome!
