Geocache Description:

A kid friendly bushwack!

 


Speedy#1's first cache placement!!!

Can you guess why we named the cache Wrecking Ball?

We like containers big enough for tradeables and trackables...so....

We also found something nearby that looks like an Anaconda, a big SNAKE.  Love to know if you see this too, it's about 30 feet SW of the cache.

When placing the cache, we approached from the soccer / lacross fields.  We recommend parking in East County Park

For the locals, the foundation of the old Dubois house is nearby, it was lost to a fire many, many years ago (of course this is all verbal history, so feel free to correct me).  It's probably fair to assume that Dubois Road is named after this family (the soccer field is on Dubois Road).  The foundation is a good bit south of the cache, it's easy to miss unless you are looking for it.  If you do go exploring, please be careful as the foundation is crumbling and it's possible to fall into a hole (I haven't explored the hole and don't know if it's deep).

There are a TON of rocks in the area, so we suggest walking slowly, running is NOT a good idea.  In fact, it's basically one large forest of rocks with a some leaves on top.  When it's wet, there is a small stream nearby, but it's tough to call this a "water crossing".

Congrats to Cura for the First time find!!!
