HH9 - Van Buren State Park Traditional Cache

This cache is part of a series of geocaches placed for the Haunted Hollow IX event (GC766B4) on 8/19/2017 at Sleepy Hollow State Park. The theme for this year's event is Michigan's State Parks.

Van Buren State Park is comprised of 400 acres of land located along the Lake Michigan shoreline in northern Van Buren County. The focal points of the park are its high dune formations and one mile of sandy beach. Van Buren became a state park in May of 1965 when the original 167-acre plot was purchased from the Harry LaBar Drake family. Since then two other land purchases have been made to form the current park.

The cache is a medium snaplock container hidden in a typical way.

Sleepy Hollow is a State Park, so either a Michigan DNR Recreation Passport or a fee is required to enter the park in a motor vehicle.

Please also be aware that hunting is allowed in this park certain times of the year, so please be careful and dress appropriately when hunting is allowed.

Congrats to Mrs2XArcher on winning the FTF!
