Geocache Description:

ALAYOH (As Long As You're Out Here) - A series of uninspired caches intended to add another convenient hide to an area you are likely to be anyway.

If you are already planning on meandering along the North Branch Trail, chances are your going to be hitting several spots in this cache-laden area. So, here's the 3rd in the series of ALAYOH appends.

You can choose to hit or skip this one, but fortunately it's right off the path, en route, and equidistant from a few hides of much higher quality.

I'm not sure I'd make the trip just to get for this, but As Long As You're Out Here...

ALAYOH and Aloha!

P.S. The random ALAYOH factoid for this area: The river serves as inspiration for one of Chicago's ubiquitous symbols: a three-branched, Y-shaped symbol (called, the municipal device) is found on many buildings and other structures throughout Chicago; it represents the three branches of the Chicago River.
