Geocache Description:


It’s Saturday and grandpa gets to baby sit his 18 month old granddaughter Hayley. What better way to get exercise and fresh air then hiding a cache. This spot was chosen by Hayley and is about as far off the trail as her legs would carry her. It’s a micro as it was the only one that would fit in her backpack. Please replace the cache as found so others can enjoy Hayleys’ Choice. This cache is located in the Kane County Fox River Shores Forest Preserve. The preserve is open from 8am till dusk. Please obey all park district rules when accessing this area. Please park only in designated areas and not at trail entrances. Remember to CITO. This beautiful stretch of the Fox River was an instant success when it opened in 1988. The one mile long waterfront is a major attraction of this site and summer weekends are alive with visitors. Natural history interests include the hillsides away from the river that are lined with springs and seeps forming "hanging fens". Rare plants such as Vanilla Grass, Tway Blade Orchid and Turtle Head are common in these fens. In early May the drier portions of the hills are covered with Pink Flowering Crabapples and White Plums. The Fox River Bike Trail runs the length of the property.
