Geocache Description:

This is a nice park with plenty of room to roam. While you are here please enjoy the sights and don't forget to do the other caches around the area. They all offer nice views of the surrounding forest so don't forget your camera and bring some hiking boots! This is part one of my "detective series" so please stay tuned for more from me.

EDIT:::::::::: FOR NOW CACHE HAS BEEN REMOVED. CHECKED ON IT FOR MAINTENANCE AND IT HAS EITHER BEEN LOST OR STOLEN. WILL POST AN UPDATE WHEN A NEW CACHE IS PLACED HERE!!!!! Cache was hidden with permission from lake metroparks. Please take caution while hiking off the path and as always, be respectful of the environment. Hogback ridge is what you seek, The path to the cache is not meek. To start your journey head down the hill, There are lots of rodents but they will not kill. A bench you will pass to your left, A little walk beyond turn right at the cleft. Follow the trail but stay away from the ledge, Soon you find the cache tucked into its wedge. First to find can take the snack! Also, if you have children PLEASE be VERY careful and watch them closely around the ledge. You can follow the regular path all the way but the view is not as good. When you reach the cache you should be standing on a cliff overlooking the water in a small clearing. Good luck to everyone! Also, the coords listed my not be exactly correct, they should bring you to within 20 feet or so of the cache. My gps was giving me several different readings each time so if anyone has better coords please let me know.
