Geocache Description:


The posted coordinates WILL NOT take you to the final cache, but to a very nice park in southern Clarion County, the Rimersburg Veterans Memorial Park/Museum where you will find answers to several questions to get the final coordinates. The park is open every day from dawn to dusk, (SO PLEASE NO NIGHT CACHING FOR THIS ONE). The museum is open selected hours, but if open when you are there go in and enjoy. All answers to questions are found in the outside park. Enjoy the park while finding your answers and please be respectful of your surroundings.

The final coordinates are on private land owned by the cache owner. Say hello if we are home. Rufus our geo-dog might bark to greet you, but he cannot go where the cache is hidden due to an underground fence limiting his area to roam. He looks like a small pony and reminds you of Marmaduke of cartoon fame, but he is very friendly. He loves to go geo-caching with us.

YOU MUST SIGN LOG – NOT YOUR NORMAL LOG BOOK HOLDER- TO GET CREDIT FOR CACHE. Bring your own writing tool. You might need a geo-utensil to retrieve the log from its holder. Not much room for trade items, but there will be a special prize for the first, second and third to find. Whether finding as a group or alone, please only take one of the first, second or third to find prizes. Let us know how you like our first puzzle cache. Have fun and don’t go nutty.
