Geocache Description:

This is the sixth one in wizard of Oz series it is just over 1.5 miles into the series. Your looking for a small container that has a log an can hold one or two small items. There is a FTF pathtag for the FTF. The slippers in the MGM auction sold for $15,000 they are on display at the Popular Culture wing of the National Museum of American History at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.

The Wizard of Oz series is in the Nipmuck State Forest in Union, Ct. This is a series of 17 caches, with a bonus cache at the end. You need to obtain all 17 caches to find the bonus cache. If you plan to do the whole series it will be about 5.5 miles, you can drive about a mile in to another parking area if you want to take a mile off the hike. If you do this series in order you will loop around the pond. There is a few side trails that you will have to take along the way. To get the bounce cache you will have to back track just a bit and take another side trail to a very nice spot. Some of the caches were placed with help from Alexis, Jordan and Shawn my great nieces and nephew. I hope you all enjoy the Land of Oz and the caches along the way.
