Geocache Description:

This cache is located near Story Mound, but is not on the property. There is no need to go within the fenced in area. Terrain is very flat and handicap accessible. It can be reached from the sidewalk. Hidden well, so please replace well.
Cache contains a log and a pen. The cache is a cylindrical M&M's container with camouflage tape. This is my first cache placed. Cache has been permitted by the Ohio Historical Society. Watch out for muggles and happy caching!

"Story Mound is a large, rounded earthen mound located on slightly less than an acre of ground in Chillicothe. This ancient burial mound stands 19.5 feet high, with a basal diameter of 95 feet. Built by people of the Adena culture sometime between 800 B.C and A.D. 100, it was excavated in 1897 by Clarence Loveberry, who discovered the first example of a circular timber building used in Adena ceremonial and domestic architecture. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The State of Ohio acquired Story Mound in 1950."
