Geocache Description:

The Claw is located across the water. Just a place I visit. My family liked the quote from Toy Story.

This is for all you Gowanus Canal fans.  It is a Federal Superfund clean-up site.  It has been polluted by it's past neighbors and overflow of sewage from the area.  Underwater fans were installed to aerate the water for sealife.  Never maintained and unfunded, they decayed and the water became stagnant.  The past few years has seen a revival in plantlife and organisms.  I see people fish and kayak near here; don't eat anything caught here.  Bacteria and pollutants still a factor, but better than before. Low muggle factor.

This is our first hide.  We placed it as a family.  Cache On!

I left an FTF TB.  Log only. BYOP. Congratulations to CassidyCarolyn for FTF!
