Geocache Description:

This cache is hidden on the park trails of the Huntington Hills subdivision. The park trails are well maintained and marked. The park hours are from dawn until dark -- the Civic Association has asked that you strictly adhere to the open hours of the park as this is in a residential area. IF YOU ARE SEEN IN THE PARK AFTER DARK, NEIGHBORS WILL CALL THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT.

There are two ways to enter onto the trails: 1. through the main park area which is on the end of the Springbrook Drive, where you can park in the lot and walk away from the pool towards the woods and past the open field. 2. Through the wooded entrance that is on Forest Lane Avenue just as you turn off Huntington Way.

Depending on how you decide to enter the park will determine the length of your hike. Overall the trails are easy to walk with some slight slopes.

You may run across the water treatment facility in your quest. The facility itself is monitored by video cameras to prevent vandalism. Approaching the facility is NOT required.

The cache is a standard log book cache that has some decent swag for those who find it first, including a roll of 35mm film, a pin from the inaugural season of the Schottenstein Center, brass dice, and some miscellaneous tchotchke I have picked up here and there.

It is in a Rubbermaid container that is spray painted black.

It is not on the trail, but closeby in a somewhat difficult place to reach.
