This is a three-stage multi where the sizes get progressively larger. It was hidden as an ode to Pine Stand (GC10AEN), which was my 100th find. All the stages are located not far off a paved U-shaped walking and biking path in Hastings, MN. Parking is available on E. 10th Street near stage one (the listed coords). If you walk the full loop it’s about a mile. Park hours are 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. and people walk on it during the day so be stealthy...
NOTE: There are some railroad tracks near one of the stages. You don’t need to cross them nor come anywhere near them. Please be careful.
Stage one is a micro and will require some stealth (also, don't shove it too far into the hidey hole when replacing). Stage two is a small locking container (about a size 2). Stage three is a gallon-sized jug with a logbook, pen and plenty of good swag with room for more (please trade items, don't just take them).
From this trail you’ll get some views of Lake Isabel. As you drive to it to park you’ll pass two of Hastings’ biggest employers, Smead Manufacturing and Hudson Manufacturing. Stage one is across from the city’s Cal Ruedy Public Works Garage.
