Geocache Description:

This cache is hidden as part of Hike-n-Seek 2015


Here's one that's all about location.  If you're lucky, the fuzzy critters will be out and about when you stop by to hunt this cache.  They must be bored most of the time, because they were quite interested in us as we passed by.  Photos are encouraged for this cache, but not a requirement.  Please do not attempt to feed them. Just enjoy the view!


**Cache at your own risk**

Geocaching, hiking, backpacking and other outdoor activities involve risk to both persons and property. There are many variables including, but not limited to, weather, fitness level, terrain features and outdoor experience, that must be considered prior to seeking a Cache. Be prepared for your journey and be sure to check the current weather and conditions before heading outdoors. Always exercise common sense and caution.
**Remember to be good ambassadors to nature. We as geocachers have a responsibility to leave it as we found it, so others may enjoy nature's glory. Always replace the cache the way you found it, so others may enjoy the find.
