Placed in The Hollows Conservation Area, this cache is along a less traveled trail! You are looking for a clear sized container. Ticks are not a problem in this section of the park as you are in a wooded area the whole time. Mosquitos, however, were kind of bad. They are fine when you are moving but got mildly annoying when I stopped to place it.
Snapping turtles have "fierce" dispositions; however, when encountered in the water, they usually slip quietly away from any disturbance. Snapping turtles have evolved the ability to snap . Why has this turtle developed the ability to snap?
