Geocache Description:

April Fools' Day is celebrated every year on April 1st by playing practical jokes and spreading hoaxes. The jokes and their victims are called April fools. People playing April Fool jokes expose their prank by shouting April Fool. 


I have come across some cache types that have made me feel “the fool” and I thought I would share some of my acquired knowledge. I have often enjoyed the hiking the trails and fishing the river here at Viking County Park. As you are searching for the official geocaching log to sign, take time to enjoy the beauty around you. You will see many birds, blooming wild flowers and lots of wild life. There is a dog park across the river for added entertainment.

You must sign the official cache log to claim the find. If you don't sign the log, you didn't find the cache and your name will be deleted without notice. Please replace as found to keep it just as fun for the next cacher. Feel free to comment on your favorite quotes, but do not give the final location away. Coordinates have been checked multiple times and are within 13 feet. I'd be a fool not to take advantage of that range!

There are several trinkets to be had and there is a Gold medal for the FTF. Remember it is not nice to fool Mother Nature. She reminded me of that as I was placing this cache as she let loose a big hail/rain/sleet storm forcing me to curtail my foolery until sunset. The bonus was watching a beautiful sunset as I finished up. Have Fun!

All rules and regulations of geocaching.com have been followed and all restrictions of the Dane County Parks have been abided by. NOTE: No micros and No destruction of the county nature.
