The above co-ords are approximate parking co-ordinates to a one stop - nice walk cache. You will need a paper and pencil. The final cache is hidden at 49.39.AB9 96.13.CD6. The multiple stages of this cache are especially fun for children.

The Jokers 4 love the outdoors and have made some "Friends of the Forest" who each have a clue to find the final cache. You will look for one "friend" at each location that your parents have programmed in. Look carefully.

At N49.39.401 W096.13.816 you will find a forest creature. Write down the FRIEND and its number. The same numbers are written on front and back of all. If one is fading hopefully the other won't be.
Do the same at N 49.39.437 W 096.13.675
Also at N49.39.433 W096.13.784
Also at 49.39.389 W96.13.741

Then fill in the above puzzle
Chickadee is A.
Chipmunk is B.
Porcupine is C.
Frog is D.

This will take you to the smartest friend in the whole forest who knows where the final cache is hidden. Stand near this friend. His eyes are looking right at the hidden cache 30 feet away. This is a themed cache. Children should trade animals/birds/reptiles while adults can trade coins with animals, birds and reptiles on them.

Enjoy the hunt! Watch for poison ivy in summer. You may begin with any of the co-ords above.
There is a logbook, FTF Certificate and pen/pencil and numerous creatures to swap. Good Luck!

October 25 by Team Ffej (171 found) Fun for the kids on the way back home from Winnipeg. TFTC [view this log]

October 20 by MuStash (764 found) I finally joined the ranks of the "paperless" cachers; travelling with tons of cache info in an iPod. Today was my first time passing by here with the requisite info to actually search for the cache. Many times I've passed and muttered to myself that I don't have what it takes. Sooooo... today I happily stopped to enjoy this hunt. Great idea and place for a compact multi. Enjoyed the hunt for the cute critters. As Geo-Indy noted, the numbers were very faded. After finding the cache and confirming my readings had been correct, I made another round of visits to the critters with a permanent marker and re-marked their numbers. Should be good for another year or two. [view this log]

September 7 by Geo-Indy (663 found) Nice puzzle in a kind of interesting place. Lots of places to put a cache. The numbers on some of the Forest Friends were faded and hard to read. I had to guess at the last one and luckily came up with the right number. Coords were right on. [view this log]

August 30 by Clan Lonewolf (562 found) Finally made it out to do this cache puzzle, its been sitting on the front page of nearby cache listings for a loooooooong time! Thanks to the friendly critters for showing us the way to the cache. Great hide! Dropped off TimberWolf TB and picked up a Moose TB. [view this log]

July 12 by bevro (2350 found) I finally decided to finish this cache on the way to the lake this afternoon. Did the 4 critters last fall and forgot to bring the cache description along to solve. Then lost the results so had to go back today and start all over. Nice day anyway, horseflies weren't too vicious until I finished. Funny cache, TFTH. [view this log]
