Geocache Description:

It might take you longer to find this geocache than William Henry Harrison lasted in the presidency!

This is a HEAVILY camouflaged, hopefully very evil geocache. The camouflage itself would probably qualify as a large container, but I had to use a micro-sized log sheet, so I'm going to to call it a micro. I have included a pen, but it never hurts to bring your own.

The cache is located near the trail behind President William Henry Harrison's Tomb in North Bend, OH. It was placed with the permission of the Harrison Symmes Memorial Foundation. You can learn more about the tomb here: http://www.ohiohistory.org/museums-and-historic-sites/museum--historic-sites-by-name/harrison-tomb The cache should be within approximately 75 feet of the bridge, on the side farthest from Cliff Rd.

There is another geocache placed nearby (by another cacher, not me -- it was the first one I ever found though) in the John Cleves Symmes Cemetery. I highly recommend you go find it as well, as it's a very cool and very old cemetery to visit.

PLEASE PUT THE CACHE BACK AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO HOW YOU FOUND IT. THANKS!!!

The coordinates may be a bit off, but that's not really by design. I only have my smart phone to use, and I find the coordinates can be a bit off sometimes.

CONGRATS to The Witch for the FTF! She told me the new coordinates are about 15 feet off, and I can live with that, so happy caching!
