The Rookery Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

gorillagal: I went to check on this and could not find it anywhere. What may have started as a geo-trail is now a path back to a homeless campsite, so I think this one may have been taken. At least there weren't any trackables in it. Someone else is welcome to place a cache in the area. The Rookery had a pretty good run, but I'm not replacing this one. Thanks for all the finders that enjoyed the hunt!

Geocache Description:

Easy cache along the Fountain Creek Regional Trail. There is closer parking if you know where to look, but I prefer to walk in from the Kohl's parking lot (about 1 mile each way).

The great blue heron tends to nest in colonies, called rookeries, with multiple nests in several trees. If you look east from this cache, you may see a rookery. The nests may stick around for a while, but the herons have moved on to a new spot.

The great blue heron is the largest North American heron, with a wingspan of 70 inches!
