Geocache Description:



The Ohio State University – Vines Cache is located on the campus of the Ohio State University, and found just outside of Hale Hall (formerly Enarson Hall).


The item you are looking for contains a log and some room left over for a few small items such as Geocoins, small flat Trackables, and inexpensive foreign or interesting coins. There should be a small pencil inside, but bring your own writing utensil just in case.

The Cache is not hard to find but rated a difficulty 2 due to the high Muggle traffic in the area during the day. Please use stealth when searching to keep this cache from being muggled. Best times to search are weekends and at night but beware, there may be someone lurking around the corner when you think there is no-one around.

Parking is enforced on campus 24/7.
When geocaching on campus, you must park in a public parking garage or visit a Pay-n-Display machine.
The Pay-n-Display pay machine allows you to park in any visitor or non-restricted A, B, or C surface space but is not valid in parking garages. You must display the receipt on your dashboard. The machine only accepts coins or credit cards.
Public parking is located only a short walk away at the Ohio Union public parking garage. However, be aware that parking can be hard to find when classes are in session during the day. Also traffic and parking can be very difficult to navigate and park during home football Saturday game days in the fall.

Be sure to:
-Bring a writing utensil.
-Search and find the cache discreetly (It is located in a high Muggle traffic area).
-Log your find.
-Replace container tightly and securely in the same spot you retrieved it from.
-Drop off small trackables, trade inexpensive foreign/interesting coins & small swag if possible.
-For visitor info/food/restrooms/gift shop, check out the new Ohio Union, just east of Enarson Hall.
-Do the Ohio State Campus Self-Guided Walking tour.
