Geocache Description:

Welcome to Pleasant Valley

This 2,073 acre site has 5 miles of hiking/cross country ski trails. 2 shelters are available for rental, as well as an amphitheater. Fishing is available as well.

The Cache

At the posted coords find a sign with some history of the area and write down the year the center was created as ABCD and write down the year it closed as EFGH. The marked trailhead from the cache page is where you will find a small trail that will take you to main trail that will lead to the final- you will also find plenty of seating to work out the coords while you enjoy a great view. The final can be found at N 42 14.D H (B-E) W 88 27.C (H-A) C .

While there, learn what famous person once stayed here when it was an outdoor camp.

This cache was originally placed as part of the 2012 Cache Your Way program but remains in play for the fun of it!. To find out more information about upcoming and current Cache You Way programs, visit our website or follow us on Facebook.
