Critter Mansion ( The Thing ) Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Aye-yo: I am very surprised that Portland accepted new geocaching guidelines that does not allow geocaches in this great area with many trails. Recently bicyclists protested here in regards to Portland policy restrictions to their sport. Obviously, bicyclists have very strong support in Portland while the geocaching community seems to be fading away...

I truly enjoyed hiking in this area and spent many hours putting special care on the cache placements in this park. Now all my efforts are but memories as they turn to dust. It appears that the geocaching community is being 'shut-out' of Portland as bicyclists and homeless have many more privileges.

Geocache Description:


Perhaps the best place to park is along Brugger Street since the residents along Palatine Hill don't like visiters parking in front of their houses. There might be some permit-free parking on the weekend at the college nearby to the South of this big trail systems. There might be some parking at the hill bottom along Macadam Road. 

Many stingy nettles and blackberries are likely in the late spring to fall time. Keep your eyes open when looking for the cache a short distance Southwest from the main dirt trail. Congrats to katchip for the FTF.
