This cache is located on an extension of the St. Clare's Trail. It is a short, easy walk in most weather, but can be muddy during certain times of year. If you start feeling 'symptoms' after handling the cache container, the St Clare's hospital is nearby.  We understand they have very good quarantine procedures in place.

Good parking can be had at the Fairfield Inn across the street.  The cache will not be winter-friendly.

Permission to place this cache has been granted by St Clare's Hospital President, Mary Krueger
