Geocache Description:


This is a traditional cache located near Lake Arlington. I grew up nearby, and spent many summers exploring this area before the lake was dug. A creek used to run all the way from Flentie Park (next to the willow trees that are still there) to near where the cache is located, dividing 2 cornfields where Lake Arlington & Lake Arlington Towne are now located. A trail ran beside the creek & through the woods, which made for easy acess from the neighborhood to go "way back there". Parts of this trail & the creek still exist further north of the lake. The creek splits east of the cache, continuing west towards Windsor Dr. & north to the retention pond near North Waterman & Harbour Dr.

The cache can be accessed from multiple directions, but some may be easier than others. I have filled the cache with many swag items that I enjoyed as a kid. Enjoy the remnants of my childhood stomping grounds. The cache is pretty well camoflaged. Please keep it that way, as there is evidence of muggles throughout these woods.
