Geocache Description:

Cache to commemorate the total eclipse happening over this area on Monday, August 21, 2017.  Cache is hidden in the bottom lands behind Mallard Lake in Creve Coeur Lake Park.  Great views of the lake around sunset along the trail.


Cache is hidden just a short distance from the trail.  Just a simple pill bottle with not much room for anything else other than the log book.  The bottle is covered by a unique item that is the closest thing I had in the geolab to create an eclipse like cache.  Use your imagination to picture the eclipse.

More and more muggles are using the trail here, especially the off-road bikers.  There is a nice trail to within the last 40-50 feet.  During summer expect knee high weeds and skeeters.  Frogs like to warm themselves on the trail so careful not to step on or roll over them on the way in and out.  Some deer call this area home, more so now that the parks department has disrupted several acres within the park for various projects.  I spotted at least two dozen on the way in.  These deer are fairly used to seeing people so bring a camera and you just might be able to get a close up.  Happy caching and watch out for muggles.  Stealth is always required.

CONGRATS TO MEGALSOMEGA & PAULGRACIE ON THE FTF!
