Geocache Description:


When looking at a geocache map we realized that no fewer than 20 caches are dedicated to the Mary Jane Thurston Park North Turkeyfoot Creek in northern Henry County. On the south side of the river, there is a creek that empties into the Maumee that is directly across the river from where the North Branch exits. This creek simply goes by the name Turkeyfoot Creek. On the map the only places that the (southern) Turkeyfoot can claim caches is at the beginning, (the reservoir area in Hamler where the B&O Railroad cross the Turkeyfoot), and the end (where the Turkeyfoot dumps into the Maumee). We have decided to fill in the area with a series of several caches between the beginning and the end so you can get a little better idea how the story flows. We hope you enjoy the hunt.


After dodging traffic and fleeing the "Turkeyfoot Ghost", we decided to settle things down a bit along a more peaceful streach of the Turkeyfoot. Here you will find a picturesque view of the Turkeyfoot Creek. When I was about 25 years old this new ugly modern bridge replaced an old wooden deck, steel truss bridge that transformed the feeling of this area into an early 1900's landscape. The character of this area was so unique that our high school senior class decided to use this old truss bridge as a backdrop for our yearbook senior picture (Patriots on a Bridge). The old wooden deck bridge is long gone, along with our youth, replaced by a modern effecient steel and concrete structure. Now with steel all around, the cache can be hidden in a magnetic micro container. However, in memory of the old bridge and our high school class, I have decided to hide the coordinates of "Turkeyfoot's Abandoned Trestle" inside the micro key holder. Enjoy the area and don't forget to look for "Turkeyfoot's Abandoned Trestle".
