Geocache Description:


You will be in search of a camo preform tube with only room for a log, BYOP.

Located in Lakewood Forest Preserve; Good Parking at N42 15.310 W088 06.400


Lakewood Forest Preserve was one of the Lake County Preserves in which in did a lot of my early caching and seem to come back to regularly to find new hides. It was in Lakewood where I learned to:

1. Stay on the trail until the last possible minute before bushwhacking
2. Look up if it not obviously on the ground or in a tree
3. Set your GPSr down and let it settle down if under tree cover
4. Bring plenty of bug spray
5. Find micros in the wood
6. Appreciate the deer that seem to know why you are there and just stare at you
7. Appreciate the many nice forest preserves we have in Lake County.

This cache is hidden as tribute to this nice area and the many caches hidden by the Cowcutter1, cachyew, littlepig, Mr. Charlie and others in Lakewood. Although there are many caches here, let's hope there will always be room for one more.
