Geocache Description:

This cache is a camo-taped plastic container placed around Grand Lake St. Marys. Thought this area could use a few family friendly caches. Walking is on either grass or hard packed dirt paths with a little bushwacking at the cache site.

A little Grand Lake St. Marys history.
In 1837, work was started on a feeder reservoir to maintain the Miami-Erie canals 5ft water depth. The 13,500 acre lake was dug by workers using hand tools earning 35 cents a day. When completed in 1845, Grand Lake was the largest man-made lake in the world.
In 1949, Grand Lake St. Marys and other Miami-Erie canal feeder lakes were dedicated as Ohio State Parks, making this large lake one of Ohio's oldest state parks.
Permission to place this cache was granted by The Ohio State Parks, Grand Lake St. Marys office.

PLEASE rehide as good or better than you find it.
