Geocache Description:

A six stage multi-cache which provides an outdoor adventure in Noon Hill Reservation. May not be suitable for small children.

The good news is that all items are placed in attractive groves of trees. In some instances, minimal bushwhacking (.02 or less) may be required to reach the groves. Once arriving, however, there is relatively little undergrowth. The search area is thus open and footing is good. I have also undergone every attempt to make the search pleasant. Do not waste time slogging through bushes, rolling over heavy stones and logs, looking amidst brush piles, or anything else unreasonable! (!0/13 note: In the last 8 years the forest has changed considerably, as some large trees have fallen over and more undergrowth has appeared. The groves are more overgrown and less attractive then they once were.)

The bad news is that I have had to use small containers that blend into the surroundings. The waypoints are plastic film containers wrapped in camouflage tape. The final is the traditional tupperware container, 9 inches round and 3 inches deep. Because of the small size of the containers I have also provided hints. Complete this cache without using the hints and proclaim yourself “Geocaher of the Day!”

Mark your starting point, the Noon Hill Parking Lot, if you are not familiar with this reservation, or you may never find your way back. Have fun and good luck!
