Geocache Description:

A cool tucked away area near woodmoor, just off of hwy. 105.

For a while now I have been wanting to do a cache series. This series is to show cachers around military aircraft, popular and not popular. Good parking to get the cache would be at the nearby bank. Cache is available in winter if the hint is used. Please do not cross the nearby fence. Also, muggle activity can be high at times, so please be careful when crossing the street to get the cache.
