Geocache Description:

UPDATE: We've added a parking waypoint. You cannot park over by Goose Lake and expect to cross it. If you park at the waypoint and check out the nearby park map, you will see the trails that lead you to the cache. We hope you enjoy the trail as much as our dogs do!

This is a decent walk along some horse trails in Willamette Mission State Park.  We saw the concentration of caches in the north end of the park, and figured we'd try to balance things out a little. Please be sure to thread the lid correctly to keep the weather out.

A special thanks to Park Manager Dennis Lucas, and Park Rangers Jeremy Ahola and Carlie Traljic for their support in placing this cache! UPDATE 6-10-2023 The geozone has been well overgrown this spring, nettles and such are around the cache,( a vertical tree log, hollowed out) The park is not maintaining this area like it used to, park rules prohibit citizens to clear brush. That Said, I encourage those who search for this to attempt it during the winter months, Please DO NOT POST A "DNF" if you cannot get to the geozone, the moderator, will want me to remedy something I am not allowed to fix, and this hide will get archived which would be a shame.
