This geocache is hidden near the path that can take you all the way to the JR Alford Greenway where you can even continue toward Piney Z (Heritage Trail) and to Tom Brown Park (Multi-use or the Cadillac Trails). These trails are great for horseback riding, mountain biking, hiking, or jogging.
Provided is a waypoint for parking off of Buck Lake Road with access to this greenspace maintained by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission that is home to two additional geocaches--There's No Eighth Hole and Tallahassee East Goose Creek. A nice location early morning or late afternoon to watch the flying wildlife as this area contains a series of stormwater infrastructures and small waterbodies that drains to Alford Arm--a lake that flanks the JR Alford Greenway to the South.
Alford Arm is part of Lake Lafayette, which was originally known as "Prairie Lake" by early settlers and which eventualy runs to the St. Marks River. Upper Lafayette near Tom Brown Park and Piney Z Lake in Piney Z are also part of this system, which is considered to be one of the premier paleoarchaelolgical sites in Florida but also the most highly developed and distrubed (ditching and daming). A large number of Native American mounds surround the lake system, one ongoing archeological site can be even accesses by hiking the Heritage Trail at Piney Z.
