Geocache Description:

This is the third Box Woodland cache I have placed.  The first two are archived.  It is really a Traditional Cache not a multi. The posted coordinates are the parking coordinates. Please park there. Other routes to the final cache location take you through properties posted "No Trespassing" or along roads posted "Authorized Vehicles Only". So park at the posted coordinates and enjoy a pleasant walk through Moo U farm country.


Box Woodland, formerly the Harry and Hazel Box Farm

 

  • Michigan State University Natural Areas, Category III Area (Undeveloped area of scientific value; limited manipulation for research and demonstration may be allowed)
  • A 5 acre mixed woodland containing silver maple, white ash, basswood, sugar maple, sycamore, and oak (bur, red and Muehlenberg). A rare tree present is the red mulberry. In 1978, numerous rotting trunks of elms were observed. The woodland contains an exceptionally rich herbaceous flora.

 

The difficulty of 1.5 was selected because it is not in plain view. The terrain of 2.0 was selected because it is over a half mile walk on grassy trails (no wheel chairs or strollers, but no bushwhacking (except for the last 10')).

The cache is a 1.25 liter lock'n'lock suitable for TBs. The final location of the cache is N 42° 41.359 W 084° 29.467.





This cache was placed by a proud member of MiGO.
