Geocache Description:

Calling all Geocachers, come find this one!

This cache is located in Olmsted County's Oxbow Park. While you're here, you can visit the Zollman Zoo and a number of other geocaches.

To find this cache, you'll have to explore the lesser-traveled side of the park. You can approach on trails from the zoo or the main park. Oxbow Park likes to play tricks on your electronics. Most of the difficulty is due to reception issues. The hints below will help you on your way.

This cache is not far south of the south-most corner of the trail. A more wild (and challenging) approach is up the dry-run mini-ravine starting south of the main park entrance (my preferred approach).

The container required a little care to replace properly. You'll see what I mean...just fiddle with it until it is secure and looks right.

Original Contents

  • Cache Prize...er, Cash!
  • 7-in-1 Mini Screwdriver
  • Magnifier with Light
  • Hand Sanitizer

Remember: 'Trade even' or 'trade up' to keep it fun for everyone.

GOOD LUCK!
