Geocache Description:

This is another in a series of caches designed to be found in any kind of weather.  I've recently been turned on to the joys of winter caching and have been profoundly grateful for the plethora of winter friendly caches in and around Missoula.  To thank all you great all weather hiders and finders out there, here is a series with the mid-winter cache fix in mind!


This cache is hidden in Wapikiya Park, which is just a few blocks from my house.  We walk by here frequently on our evening constitutional. There have been a number of caches here over the years, but they've all had troubles with frequent "muggling".  My goal for this hide, then, was not something crazy orginal or ridiculously hard--I am simply hoping that this hide style is discreet and fairly muggle proof.  In the event this one has problems, at least it's a place I pass by often and can easily maintain!  I hope you enjoy the area; this little neighborhood park has a lot to offer, including a trailhead that leads to open spaces up the hill.
