This is a regular cache hidden along the trail leading from the Hopewell Day Lodge at Caesar Creek State Park.
Placed with permission - Permit number CCSP02718..


The wooded lands of the park were home to several early Ohio Indian cultures. While the Hopewells inhabited several sites in the state, their earthworks (known as Fort Ancient) on the nearby Little Miami River are among the largest and best known. This hilltop enclosure used for ceremonial gatherings is surrounded by three miles of earthen walls, constructed using animal shoulder-blade scoops and hides for transporting dirt. This Indian race lived in the region during a period from 300 B.C. to 600 A.D.

The day lodge is named in honor of these ancient Indians. The lodge offers a meeting room and kitchen that can be rented for family reunions or club meetings.

The cache is a short walk from the parking area and should not be too difficult to find. Please be respectful of groups that may be using the lodge when you visit.

** one of the trees have fallen and the cache is now under a geo-pile nearby.
Cache located in Warren County
