Geocache Description:

Ammo can placed in a little known area park.
Congrats to ZenKitty for the First To Find!

We want to thank MudSneaker for allowing our family to take over this cache :) We hope that those who came to the original cache will come out to this new one. Please hide it exactly as you found it! In the past the cache's here have been muggled a few times.

A short and sweet looping trail with benches, viewpoint, and markers along the way, this handicap friendly nature preserve is well worth a visit.

Lois Lake Habitat Preserve is 12 acres of lake,creek ,and woods located in the Woodland Creek Watershed. The City of Lacey acquired the land March 1, 1993 through a grant from Dept of Natural Resources Aquatic Enhancement account. The interpretive signs were funded by the Dept of Fish & Wildlife Urban Wildlife Program.

The Preserve adjoins the forested St. Martins campus as one of the few significant UN-fragmented forests in the City of Lacey. At the viewpoint is a great sign describing how this lake is slowly changing thus "disappearing".

NOTE: the interpretative sign is gone. hopefully it will be restored soon. Several of the trail markers are missing as well and I shall contact them to see about replacements.

Easy parking & trail access is located in the back corner of Safeway at N47.02.369 W122.47.942.
Handicap access is about middle in the rear of Safeway.

If you choose to complete the nearby "Lois Lake (GCTKDK)" first and want to stroll to this cache, cross Carpenter Rd at the stop sign and turn slightly right till you see the trail access.
*** There is no crosswalk ***

Have a great walk and have fun!

Upload pictures if you take any :) But please do not take pictures of where it is hidden :) We don't want to spoil the fun for the next seekers.

Cache is a ammo can. Contents when we placed it included 2 wooden puzzles (Praying Mantis and Eagle), Geo Stones, Iron beads (butterfly, fish and a diamond), and little brush with hair bands for girls (New in package)
