Geocache Description:

Cache is in Lewis Park which is part of the John F. Hall trail, just south of the University of Delaware main campus.

Note: March 4, 2008
Often, nature hides this cache even better than I intended. To remedy this, I have added a small "indicator" near the cache position to let you know that you're in the right spot. One might try looking for this indicator instead of the cache itself. It will be absolutely blatant that you've found the indicator when you find it. So, if you find yourself wondering whether it is correct or not, you can bet that its not correct ;-) Good luck!

This park can be covered with muggles in the day so please be careful. Take time to explore some of the fantastic trees in this park. Some of them are really neat! You're looking for a small, painted lock n' lock container. The cache is located near a floodplain so please replace it securely as you found it. The difficulty rating is partially because your GPS will not function well in this area (trust me, you'll know why when you see it). I considered making this an offset, but decided against it when there was no good way to direct anyone into this area. Expect to get dirty during wet weather and please be respectful of the foliage. These plants are durable, but will break if torqued too hard. There is an unactivated travel bug inside as a FTF prize. Good luck!

Parking is available at the south end of Academy St.

BONUS! We all need encouragement to log a DNF. If you're willing to log at DNF for this cache I'll send you a picture of the cache in its location, courtesy of mikeott. It will not give away the location, but at least you'll have a better idea of what you're looking for ;-) Please email me or post a note on the cache if you'd like one. Happy caching!
