CHICK HICKS

Placed as part of a 12 cache series to find YourselfBased on the Disney Pixar film, Cars.

This can also be done as an independent cache.  The numbered sticker in the cache is a clue to finding Yourself .  This is a small container. A small amount of bushwhacking is required though a trail will take you most of the way.

Mean character, nasty hide.  Although the walking trail to the cache is fairly easy.  Getting to it, and maybe even finding it could be difficult.  Chick’s area is known for biting you and lashing out at your clothes.  Placed in a marshy area, walk is about 0.6 to 0.7 miles.  This is a no hunting area, though muggles might see you.

The other usual IowaDisclaimers apply:

Hot and buggy in the summer months.  Damp in the wet months.  Frigid in the winter months.  Some native plants can be irritating to exposed skin. For parking hint see below. Following the description above about the length of walk and the hint should provide you with an acceptable area.
