Island View Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

TxStrawberryCreek: I'm sad to archive this cache, especially since it had been found so many times recently. I suspect someone at some point put in a throwdown cache, not that I have any problem with that. It's just that the tree near GZ bears precious little resemblance to the tree where I hid the cache originally. I recall a rather straight tree, with a nice knothole in the side. The tree I found today was all twisted and gnarly, almost like it had gotten involved in a tornado. Needless to say, I was not able to locate the cache today. Thanks to everyone who came out to find it. It has had a good run.

Geocache Description:

The cache is hidden in just about my favorite type of hiding spot. There are homes nearby, but the cache location is on Fort Worth city park property.

Be careful when you approach the cache. This didn't come up when we were scouting locations, because it was a Sunday. When I went back to place the container, though, I discovered the perils of driving on a one lane road. Twice, I came nose-to-nose with garbage collectors, and had to make a quick dive into a driveway. Just keep your eyes open, and you should be just fine.

Congrats to marshwin for FTF!
