The I-275 Bike Trail uses Hines Drive to connect the sections north and south of I-96 / I-275 and M-14. This is one of a set of four caches in the area of Northville Road and Wilcox Lake. Hopefully some day all the various sections will be connected up. As with the other sections, I am naming them after bicycle manufacturers. This cache is named after Gnome et Rhône. Gnome et Rhône was an earlier French aircraft engine manufacturer. The also produced motorcycles and bicycles.
The cache container is a small camo painted bison tube. You will need a log extractor. Please bring your own pencil or pen.
I have found that a quick and simple log extraction tool can be made from a small paperclip. Straighten one end out. Grab just a small portion (maybe 1/32 of an inch or 1 millimeter) with a long-nose or needle-nose pliers then bend it at a right angle. I have attached one to the cache you can use. Please leave it for the next person.
