Located along the beautiful Upper Niagara River by the mouth of Baker's Creek. This is intended to be a park and grab, however I have increased the difficulty slightly due to several DNFs while the cache was there. Please note that parking is closed from Midnight until 6:00 AM, so no caching during those hours is permitted, and please do not climb the tree. Take the time to put the cache back the way you found it, unless you found it on the ground, in which case hide it the best you can and report "Needs Maintenance". WATCH FOR MUGGLES!
The ancient Greeks knew the therapeutic values of this tree. Tea made from its bark was used for stiff joints and rheumatic pains. By the 1840’s, chemists had isolated salicylic acid from it and found it produced fever-reducing and pain-killing effects. Salicylic acid got its name from the genus of this tree.
This location is fantastic for bird watching, and is also a great place to hang out and watch fireworks.
