HEARTLAND TRAIL : THE LOG CABIN Traditional Cache

This cache is temporarily unavailable.

CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE

I've noticed this cache is in need of some maintenance which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.

The guidelines indicated that periodic visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the cache owners responsibilities. If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to Disable it - I have Disabled it for you this time.

Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) within 28 days, so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

  • Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache or do whatever else is needed, post an Owner Maintenance log indicating the cache has been checked and ENABLE your cache. Then sit back and wait for the praises.

  • If it is the cache page that needs maintenance, please make the necessary updates and post an Owner Maintenance log indicating the cache page has been updated and ENABLE your cache.

  • If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (within 28 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

  • If you don't plan on fixing it then you need to Archive it, so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) it on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

Geocache Description:

IN THE WOODS

Heartland State Trail Map (234Kb) Rest area Fishing Camping Bike rental nearby Hiking Horseback riding Biking Mountain biking In-line skating Snowmobiling Wheelchair access (electric wheelchairs allowed) Check out the Heartland and Paul Bunyan State Trail Virtual Tour! The Heartland State Trail was one of the first rail-to-trail projects in the country. It is a 49 mile multiple use trail between Park Rapids and Cass Lake. The trail is located entirely on a level abandoned railroad grade except for a four mile segment north of Walker, on sharply rolling terrain. The 27 mile segment between Park Rapids and Walker has a paved surface. This segment also has a second grassy treadway for horseback riding and mountain biking. The 20 mile segment from Walker to Cass Lake is also paved, with a partial dual treadway for snowmobiles with studded tracks. The entire trail is groomed in the winter for snowmobiling; however, studded tracks are prohibited on the asphalt. The Heartland also provides connections to many miles of groomed snowmobile trails in the Hubbard County Grant-in-Aid system. Views of lakes, rivers and streams are numerous, and many are accessible from the trail. The trail passes through northern hardwood forests and stands of jack, red, and white pine, as well as the spruce fir forest community. The occasional majestic white pine can be seen towering over the trail. Common mammals noticed along the trail include whitetail deer, raccoon, red fox, porcupine, beaver and muskrat. The observant trail user may spot coyote, weasel, mink, bobcat or black bear. Many varieties of birds can be seen along the trail including the bald eagle, which has a large population in the Chippewa National Forest and surrounding area. Parking The trailheads for the paved section of the Heartland State Trail are located in Park Rapids and Walker. Parking for the trail is available in Park Rapids at Heartland County Park, Dorset, Nevis, Akeley, Walker, and Erickson's Landing north of Walker. Do not leave valuables in your car.
