Geocache Description:

A small cache placed at (almost) the highest point on Mansfield University's campus.

One of the highest points on campus, what used to be Myers Field overlooks the Borough of Mansfield. On a clear day, you can see as far as the nearby mountaintops will let you. This spot used to serve as the Mansfield University Marching Band's practice field but now houses parking to accommodate the addition of a new residence hall. Regardless, on the Fourth of July and during Mansfield's 1890's Weekend, the lot is the best place to observe the borough's fireworks displays.

The cache has been placed just north of the new parking lot. The last 15 feet or so could be pretty steep depending on the angle you approach it from. Please keep an eye on children or pets!

The cache is in a clear, medium-sized lock-n-lock container.

"They paved paradise and put up a parking lot..."
