This cache is custom made for this location. Please be careful as this park never sleeps, but I am aware of this. If you don't like high muggle hides I would avoid this one. Please replace cache carefully In order to prevent it going missing again. THIS IS HIDE REPLACEMENT 5! As with all my downtown cache hides I recommend that you use a program such as Google earth to pinpoint where the cache is hidden as GPSr signal tends to bounce a LOT in the downtown core.
