Wanna Be a Tree Hugger? Traditional Cache
Wis Kid: As there has been no owner action in the last 30 days, I am regrettably forced to archive this listing.
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
Finding this cache may require one or more of the following, depending on the season and the water level: snow boots, hiking boots, swamp boots, and/or hip waders. In winter, this will be somewhat easier than the terrain rating suggests.
About the cache name: Missustarr is a proud environmentalist, and it used to be that whenever we were hiking a newly discovered trail we would keep an eye out for large, lonely-looking trees. Once we found one, she would pose giving it a great big hug while I snapped a picture to document her tree-hugging tendencies. 
But what does all that have to do with this cache, you ask? Well when I hid the container I ended up doing a bit of tree hugging myself, and I expect you will too if you want to claim your smiley. So come find this cache and embrace your inner hippie... or is it the other way around? Either way, enjoy!
Congrats to SnarfyDog for being the FTH (first tree hugger) 
, and a big thanks too for agreeing to maintain these marsh hides in my absence!
