Summer Reading List Traditional Geocache
Lego Crew: Checked the cache this evening, and it had fallen out of its hiding spot again and was missing. Decided to just retire this one and replace it with a new hide in an area close by that I have eyed for a while. Thanks to all of those who hunted this one and told what was on their reading list.

A camo pill bottle located in an out of the way corner of Lower City Park, Iowa City. The cache is log only. Please bring a pen.
This area of the park is a great place to stop and relax, watch the river or enjoy a good book. When logging your visit to the cache, please share the titles of book(s) that you have recently read or would recommend to fellow cachers for their “summer reading list.” In addition, please include a brief explanation for why you liked this particular book. Thank you.
The cache is located north of the baseball diamonds and not too far from the bike path. During the summer months, lower city park features a small amusement park with five different rides for the little kids. The park also features a nice playground, tennis courts, bocce courts, horseshoe pits, and numerous picnic areas. Ample parking is generally available with just a short walk to the cache.
Although this area is mostly flat, we are rating the terrain higher due to rugged footing near ground zero (sticks, branches, brush, and possibly mud). The area is prone to flooding at times. Accessing the cache will require a few feet of light bushwhacking, depending on direction.
Be advised that when placing the cache, we also noted abundant poison ivy in the area. However, the poison ivy is mostly avoidable by accessing the cache from the north. Look for a “cut-through” north of ground zero. Hunt this cache at your own risk.
Iowa City park hours are from 6:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Have fun!
