Geocache Description:

Located in the Iliff Commons area, parking just off of NE 31st and Kincaid.

Dr. and Mrs. Iliff bought 80 acres from a developer to preserve the land in its native state. The prairie, after years serving as neglected pasture, is gradually being restored by burning and reinstitution of native species. Several miles of trails have been carved through the grass and woods to serve as walking, running, cross-country skiing, and mountain biking courses. A replica of Topeka’s original log cabin lies on the trails and is available for overnight visits by organized groups.

This cache is located right off of a carved trail, so it's very easy access with just a little bit of bushwacking toward the end.

Our family really enjoys walking and mountain biking. Our kids especially love the treehouse and spotting the trees with "faces" scattered throughout the trails. We're hoping to enjoy some fishing in the pond when it warms up a bit.

Original cache items:
Pocket Sudoku game
Light-up Yo-Yo
Glitter Stickers
Glitter Pens
Playing Cards
Rubber toy Snakes

There's usually a trail map located at the park entrance, or you can download one at: (visit link)

Placed with owner permission. Iliff Commons is open to the public from dawn to dusk every day.
