TeamBMZ (bmzdaddy): I cannot find a suitable replacement so I am archiving for now. Planning to redo the series anyway so timing works.

Thanks to all who found it.

Geocache Description:

This cache is located on the future path of the Riparian Trail.  The trail is a 3-phase trail that will circle much of Central Park.  Riparian refers to the area on the banks of a natural water source, which in this case Chesterfield Creek.


Phase one is about a half mile long of nice crushed stone paths and board walk bridges.  This cache is located on a section of the trail that has not been built yet however it is still fairly easy to access.  Parking is available at the Chesterfield Family Aquatic Center (a.k.a. - The City Pool).  Once we crossed the street and started up the small hill we saw a baby snake (maybe 6 inches long).  We also saw several black birds in the trees along the trail.  The cache can be seen from the main trail however it is designed to be overlooked.  This one is an experimental cache so please log any issues with the cache if it begins to show signs of wear.  Please be gentle with the cache (you'll understand why once you find it).  Room only for a log so BYOP, and you may need tweezers to get the log out.  Happy hunting.
