Only a century ago, the territory known as Deerfield Township was clad in its native wildness. Not an open space could be found which would let the mellowing light of the sun pass to the then undisturbed soil.
The forests stood an impenetrable wilderness and, with not a tree amiss from their number, defied any transformation of nature's unexplored solitude. Heavy underbrush formed itself into one continuous mat, only broken by the winding trails along which the native red man was wont to wander.
In early days, the country contained many ''deer-licks," being springs tainted somewhat with saline substances, and to these many deer were wont to go.
It is from this cause that the name Deerfield was given to the township. This name was given to one of the townships of Hamilton County about 1796, which included nearly all of what is now Warren County.
The posted coordinates take you to a lightly wooded area across from the Deerfield Towne Center where there's lots of shopping. You'll find a geotag there with coordinates to guide you.
Note!! This is a level four difficulty hide. It won't be easy to find, but it's there. If you think it's been muggled, think again because it's very likely still there and you've have yet to look in the right place.

Good Luck!
