READ ME!!! *** YOU NEED A CODE TO UNLOCK THIS CACHE BOX!! ***
This is an easy-access cache/letterbox! Park at the Loomis Rail-Trail trail head. **Bring your bug repellent!!!** It's a short walk on the Rail-Trail to the cache.
*** Due to past thefts, the 3.0 version of this cache is secured to a tree and the box is locked with a padlock. Read on to discover how to open the lock...
Certain times of the year, be aware that there may be poison ivy in this area.
Doggy Grandma's House was muggled in May '08 and in 2014, so we've upgraded the cache a little...
This cache/letterbox is placed near Doggy Grandma's house. Jax comes over to her house to splash in the pond and play with his friend, Buddy. Doggy Grandma always has a treat and toys to play with.
Please write a message or draw a picture for Doggy Grandma with the sidewalk chalk in the cache. There are treats for dogs in this cache :)
The cache container is a large ammo box. The box is easy to unlatch, but takes a little muscle to open. To open the padlock, use this cache's call signature: 12N55. Please be careful when opening and closing the lock so that other cachers can continue to enjoy this cache and its placement. Make sure that the cache is securely locked when you leave it. Simply closing the lock will not secure it; you must turn the dials to secure the lock.
Also, make sure to replace the natural cover when rehiding the cache so it isn't muggled again! :) It should still be pretty easy for kids to find...
Jax and I placed this cache to earn a Geocaching merit badge in Dog Scouts. :)
