Geocache Description:


Anyone who caches in Delaware has seen the name before; MikeOtt (AKA Mike Ott). He was one of the original geocachers in the state and has hidden close to 300 geocaches in Delaware and the surrounding states of Pennsylvania, Maryland and New Jersey. Mike does a great job at taking you to places you have never seen before. So, in honor of Mike and his dedication to the sport of geocaching, here is the challenge.

The cache IS listed at the provided coordinates, in the heart of MikeOtt country. To log this cache you must do the following:

1. Have found at least 25 MikeOtt caches. These may be archived and may include events. The cache may also have his name in the title.

2. Create a bookmark list of at least 25 MikeOtt caches you have found, making sure it is public and includes this challenge on the list. The best way to search for MikeOtt caches is from the Main Menu > Play > Hide and Seek a Cache > Under Seek a Cache enter MikeOtt in the "Hidden by Username" box and hit "go."

3. Include your favorite MikeOtt cache in the log. My favorites are the Rt. 9 series and Wilmington Blue Rock.

The cache is located along the Chestnut Hill trail in the Judge "Hugh" Morris (yes that was his name) estate of White Clay Creek State Park. From March to November this is an honor system fee area-$3 for instate cars, $6 for out of state cars. Annual state park passes are $27 and discounted for seniors and members of the military. The park is open from 8am to sunset. So, no night caching.
