Geocache Description:

8-16-16 Update: Now that the water level has risen dramatically, I have provided two ways to get to the cache. If you take the high road, the terrain rating is as listed. If you take the low road, the terrain rating should be raised to a 5. Feel free to log it again if you found it previously and also if you locate the bonus which is unchanged.

Up for a challenge? I had to up the difficulty for this rehide as the original was muggled too many times. And sorry but the cache has only room for a log and pencil.

Sunset Park in beautiful Fish Creek was created in 1919. The Sunset Park Guest Home (now the White Gull Inn), the building up the road, was originally the Lumberman's Hotel in Marinette, Wisconsin. It was moved across the Green Bay ice to Fish Creek in 1907.

Muggle alert! This nice little park can be busy. Even as I was scoping out the location for the cache, a family handed me a camera and requested that I take some pictures of them in front of the nice view. Then later in the evening as I was placing the cache I arrived and decided to wait out a few muggles. Then three kids came down and started throwing rocks into the water. Then their parents came and then a few more different groups and then after about 50 people, I gave up and came back the next morning and had the place to myself.

I've hidden two caches here. (About a month after this cache was published someone placed a Letterbox nearby. It is not related in any way to my caches.) The main cache has the coordinates for a bonus cache. It is much more difficult. Feel free to log the bonus cache as a separate entry to get credit for the second find. The bonus is very small and hidden well. Please rehide each cache carefully. Thanks!

And please post your pictures.
