Geocache Description:

I needed to do some cache maintenance on my other cache in the area so I decided to place a multi-cache here while I was at it. I just love this area, it's one of my favorite places in Wisconsin. This 4-step multi will bring you to all the best places in this small area by Paradise Springs. There is a paved trail and then the different caches are not too far off of the trail but there is some moderate bushwacking, probably more so in the summer months. Please note that you won't need to cross the stream to get to WP1. Just give it a minute and let your signal settle. It's on the same side of the stream as the parking lot.

Kettle Moraine State Forest—Southern Unit The Southern Unit of the Kettle Moraine State Forest is 30 miles long, extending from the village of Dousman, Wisconsin, almost to the city of Whitewater. Forest Headquarters is 3 miles west of the village of Eagle on State Highway 59. This part of the park does require an entrance fee, currently $25 for an annual pass for residents, $7 for the day or $5 for an hour. There is a pay station in the parking lot. This park was created to preserve and showcase the abundant topographical features in this area. In this park you will see many Drumlins (this is what the park is most known for), Eskers, Kettles, Kames and more. Visitors to the park will find many things to occupy their time. There are many hiking, horse-back riding and biking trails. There are Picnic areas and campgrounds with a swimming beach. In the winter you can cross-country ski. Visitors may hunt and fish, according to the permits. There are historic sites to visit and nature programs to attend. There are many recreational opportunities, the best of which may be that there are lots of geocaches in the area!
