Geocache Description:

This is part of 2.5 mile walking trail and geocaching loop. This needs to be put back in its spot to avoid being washed away in a flood. You might have good view of Lake Michigan as you walk to this one.

The Fort Sheridan Golf Club is closed for planned improvements, but you can still enjoy the trails, exhibits and lakeshore and some geocaching. Rolling terrain, bluffs, ravines and mature trees set on the Lake Michigan shoreline make Fort Sheridan Forest Preserve a scenic destination for outdoor enthusiasts. Trails wind through the preserve to the sandy shores of Lake Michigan, providing the first official public access to this section of shoreline since the Fort's military operations began in 1887. The 1.3-mile asphalt Lake Michigan Trail is designed for hiking, biking and cross-country skiing and runs from Sheridan Road through the preserve to the lake, where visitors can enjoy 3/4 mile of sandy shoreline for hiking, fishing, bird watching, picnicking or relaxing. Swimming, wading and boating are not allowed. The trail connects visitors to educational exhibits along the Fort's historic parade ground and to other walk-through exhibits and viewing stations along the route. An additional 2.1 miles of mowed trail are also available and wind through the preserve.
