Geocache Description:

Located in Upper Macatawa Natural Area

UPDATED APRIL 7, 2019!!!

This geocache is alive and well. It's been a few years since I last checked it out. Coordinates are still very close. The forest has changed since I originally placed the cache. A trail now passes quite close to the hide; this wasn't there originally. Plus, the original spot was in a hollow tree truck that stood eight feet tall. No sign of that anymore! Do you best to leave the cache hidden as naturally as possible.

The Grand River flowed through this valley some millennia ago. It still wishes to exert its control over this land; therefore it is usually wet and muddy, often submerged. Be sure to check logs for this and other caches in the park for current conditions. There is much to see in this great park. Wear protective clothing and footwear that can get wet or muddy. Take binoculars. Give yourself plenty of time to take it all in. Above all, respect this wonderful property.

Ammo box. Original contents: 5 pins, 3 key rings, 4-pack of AA batteries, 4-pack of styluses for PDA, devotional book, Rivertooth TB, FTF prize (unregistered TB tag),
FTF for cacher who does NOT already have a TB (another unregistered TB tag).

Recommended parking: You can use one of the two parking lots off of 76th Ave. or 84th Ave.
