2017 JaxParks Geocaching Challenge

The City of Jacksonville is proud to bring you this geocache as part of the 6th Annual Jaxparks Geocaching Challenge! In each JaxParks Geocache, you'll find a stencil attached to the log book. Simply trace or shade your 2017 Geocaching Challenge Passport in the appropriate box as you visit each geocache. When you've collected 25 of the 30 designs, you'll qualify for the coin! For more information on the Challenge, including the rules and how to obtain a Geocoin, please visit the Jaxparks Geocaching Challenge Website. You'll want to have a brochure with the details of the Challenge handy as you explore Jacksonville's great park system!

This cache is located inside Tree Hill Nature Center. The Center is open Monday thru Saturday, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM, and is closed on Sundays and major holidays.
The trails close at 4:00.
THE CENTER WILL BE CLOSED SUNDAY, 09/03/17, AND MONDAY, 09/04/17.


The admission is $5 for adults; however, Tree Hill is waiving this fee when cachers check in at the office.
Please be respectful of park rules, its residents and other visitors.
STAY ON THE DESIGNATED TRAILS.


This is a 3-stage Multi-cache. The posted coordinates take you to the Pyramid, where the front office is located. When approaching the Pyramid, you will notice a blue sticker on the glass door. These numbers are ABCDEF. Use the numbers from this sticker to calculate the coordinates for Stage 2.

N 30 19.DBF W 081 34.(E-C)A(B-A)

No bushwhacking is required for the second stage. Please be sure to replace the cache to keep it completely from sight of any muggles passing by on the trail.

Please check out at the front office once you have found the Final.
