Olympic View?? Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Sol seaker: This has been a lot of fun. I've especially enjoyed all the logs from people who found this as their first cache. When I first placed this, there were more "evil" caches in Federal Way than easy ones, so I wanted to give new cachers somewhere to go. Now, there are a lot of them, so this can move on. Thanks for all the great logs. I've enjoyed them as much as many of you have enjoyed the cache.

Geocache Description:

This is a hidden park that has a nice playground and some trails.

This is called Olympic View Park, but I could not find a view anywhere. It actually is a bit of a canyon so the coordinates might not be right on. I took them many times, but let me know if you've got better.
Park at N47 18.483 W122 22.329
There are many entrances to this park, but not a lot of parking. The only rules posted that we could find were, "no motorized vehicles" in the park. There are no gates that would keep people out at night.
The cache is not far from the playground, although you can't see the playground from the cache site.
It is in a small lock and lock box off the gravel path.

6/10
Note: just replaced the log and container. It had been found out on the ground, so kids may have discovered it. I hid it a little better than it was, even though it is essentially in the same place, it will be a little harder to find now. Please replace in exactly the same manner so hopefully the same kids won't come looking for it again.
I had enjoyed having one of the few caches in Federal Way that was not evil, but I'm afraid it's got to be harder now to keep existing. Upgraded the difficulty to reflect this.
