Geocache Description:

Congrats to zzypdale for FTF!

This is a small log-only container on the Iron Bridge Trail. Please bring your own pen and either prior knowledge of the trail system or a map to ensure you do not get lost! The cache is named after our "geo-dog" Lacey Lou, who was with us when the cache was placed!

Since all the other caches at Lick Creek are large swag-size caches, we decided to put something out there a bit different. We managed to cram a Brazos Valley Geocacher's Path Tag in the cache for First to Find, but after it is gone, please do not put anything else in the cache because there is really only enough room for the log. Also, if you already have this Path Tag, please leave this for someone else to grab.

Lick Creek Park is the premiere nature preserve in College Station. The 515-acre park, acquired in 1987, is located at 13600 East Rock Prairie Road approximately 1.5 miles from Greens Prairie Road. The park has several cultural sites along with a great diversity of plant and animal life including the endangered Navasota Ladies Tresses. Approximately 3.5 miles of marked trails provide a unique opportunity for hiking, cycling, bird watching and equestrian activities.

Equestrian users must obtain a permit and gate key from the Parks and Recreation Department in advance. Horses and bicycles are restricted to Post Oak Trail, Deer Run Trail and Iron Bridge Trail. The park is open to visitors throughout the year from dawn to dusk. No overnight camping is permitted and visitors are reminded to watch for snakes and to stay on the marked trails. Dogs may be leash-free but must be under “voice” control at all times. All plants and animals are protected and should not be harmed or threatened. Please report any problems or issues to the City of College Station Parks and Recreation Department at (979) 764-3486.

As with any hiking, we also recommend you bring a bottle of water and a small first aide kit. This is especially important if you plan to do some of the caches farther away from the parking area, or plan to spend a few hours out here getting several of Lick's geocaches. Be prepared!
