Geocache Description:


The Swamp White Oak (Quercus bicolor), is a species of oak in the white oak section Quercus section Quercus, primarily found in the Midwestern and Eastern Seaboard regions of North America, from southernmost Quebec and southern Maine west to southern Minnesota. It is rare south of the Ohio River. As its name implies, it is a tree of wetlands, but grows farther north than the other wetland white oaks (Swamp Chestnut Oak and Overcup Oak ). It is not a large tree, typically growing to 20-25m tall, with the tallest known reaching 29m.

It's located here at the northern entrance to Hopkins Park.

Please be sure to replace the cache exactly as found and conceal it well so it doesn't get muggled.
