<p>Johnson County Park & Recreation District (JCPRD) is celebrating its 60th anniversary in 2015. The District is a leader in its field providing the community with top quality parks and recreational opportunities while being responsible stewards of all our resources. The District’s contributions to the personal lives of Johnson County’s citizens have earned the District local appreciation and national acclaim. Each year the District records more than 7 million park visitors and over 2 million recreation participations in over 4,000 programs. Their slogan is “What do YOU do for fun? If you are reading this, one answer is probably Geocaching. The District is planning many special activities throughout the year. With that in mind, and with the District’s approval we bring you 60 JCPRD caches, one for each of their 60 years. This series highlights the District’s trails with 15 different caches listed below. The District maintains over 70 miles of trails for all types of users. These trails include surfaced multi-use, nature, hiking, mountain biking and equestrian. Each featured trail has a cache with a code in it. Collect all 15 and you will have the coordinates to this series final. Some of these caches are located at future trail sites and some are located along existing trails. Enjoy these gems of the county and happy caching, but most of all have FUN!</p>
<p>This cache is for the equestrian trails at Camp Branch Glade. Just opened in late 2014, it is a 58 acre minimally developed park with a unique ecosystem. It has forested areas and rare limestone glade habitat. Its, limestone features includes a sinkhole, a large exposed limestone ridge, and large boulders along a small stream. This park will eventually combine with two other JCPRD properties when they are developed. The primary feature here is a 1.5 mile trail system consisting of 3 loops. This cache is along the connector trail between the central loop and the east loop trail. It is a well disguised, themed container. Disguised as what? Well it is an equestrian trail so you may need watch where you step.</p>
