Geocache Description:

A nano cache near DuSable Harbor between Navy Pier and Grant Park. The cache is very small and only contains a log. You'll have to bring your own pencil.

DuSable Harbor is one of the newest additions to Chicago's grand harbor system and the closest to the attractions of Navy Pier and Michigan Avenue.

From The Chicago Park District's description:
DuSable Harbor honors Jean Baptiste Pointe du Sable (ca. 1745-1818), the first non-Native American settler at Chicago. A Haitian of French and African descent, DuSable traveled to New Orleans in 1764. The following year he journeyed up the Mississippi River to St. Louis, where he began to trade with the local Indians and married a young Potawatomi woman. As early as 1772, DuSable moved on to Chicago, establishing a remote trading post near what is now Pioneer Court, just north of the river.

Enjoy a walk along the lakefront and grab this relatively simple cache along the way! There isn't much parking nearby.

Congrats to okcrew on the FTF!!
