honeychile: Well, if I can't seem to make time to get out there and check on the cache, then I have no business owning one in this location. Archived in favor of other cache owners nearer than I am! :grin:

Geocache Description:


Rock Hound
Jack Warren Park in Lewisville, NC, is not quite complete, but visitors may come in, walk on the track, or even play on the playground equipment.  In 2005, the widow of Jack Warren donated 15 acres for the park located just a few hundred yards from the Joanie Moser Park.  This delightful little pocket park is a wonderful boon for the small town of Lewisville.

The name of the cache stems from the contents -- two pounds of tumbled stones, similar to those pictured.  Please sign the logbook and take a few stones, if you like.  There are some tiny zip-loc bags so they won't get lost in pocket or pack.  There's room for trading, and will be more room as the supply of  tumbled stones decreases.  There's a fun first-finder prize, too.

The cache is predictably hidden in a wooded area where you will be out of sight from walkers and kids on the playground.  You're looking for a medium sized lock'n'lock type box.  Be sure to re-hide the cache very well so that it is not discovered by non-geocachers.  In the fall and winter, this will be especially important as the trees will offer less cover.   Coordinates were averaged with a 10' accuracy and should be reasonably good. 

NOTE AND DISCLAIMER: This cache is hidden in the great outdoors. Welcome to the South!  We've got skeeters; we've got chiggers; we've got ticks; we've got ants; we've got snakes and other critters; we've got poison ivy, oak, and sumac; we've got mold and allergens; we've got kudzu and other pesky vines; and boy, have we got briars, brambles, and stickers!  Depending on the place you elect to enter the off-trail portion of the hunt, you may very well find these and other denizens of our environment. Please dress accordingly and take adequate precautions whenever you interact with nature. And don't forget to cache in, trash out.
