Geocache Description:

The 4Nathan caches are placed in honour of my son Nathan, an amazing young man. Early in 2014, at the age of 24, he left us to begin his greatest adventure ever. The family cottage in Baysville was his favourite place on earth. These caches represent some of the places and things he enjoyed so much.

Nothing says spring has arrived more than the beautiful serenade of spring peepers.  Growing only to 1.5 inches in length, these tiny frogs ring in spring. When the warmer weather arrives, male frogs attempt to attract a mate with a spring serenade. The frogs normally perform in trios. The one who starts each round usually has the deepest voice. The "vocal sacs" under their chins allow the frogs to “sing.” They pump the sacs full of air until they look like a full balloon, then let out a loud "peep" while discharging the air. They “peep” about once every second. These chirps can often be heard as far as a half-mile away.

Overlooking the river, this cache is on the perimeter of the  Baysville Cemetery.  As with any resting cache, there is no need to disturb any resting places.  

Log is tiny - BYOP and tweezers.
