Geocache Description:

The Cache is not at the posted Coordinates. Instead either follow the letterbox directions or look at the sign at the posted coordinates to get to the cache.

The cache is hidden in Spring Lake Park.  Park is open from 5 am to 11 pm, so geocaching is only allowed when the park is open. A parking lot is nearby the lake.  However, you have a uphill hike away from the lake to get to the cache.  

Please Leave stamp, stamp pad, and log inside cache when done.

Letterbox Directions

At the sign at the posted coordinates, follow the sidewalk north to F street. 

Look both ways and when it is safe to cross, cross the street.

Head left (west) on the sidewalk to the next intersection of F street and 20th street.

Stand on the Northeast corner (on the sidewalk) of the intersection.

From here follow the sidewalk into Spring Lake Park to just before the curve at approximately 250 feet

At this location turn right (East) and walk thru the grass and other plants near the tree line to a broken retirement picnic at approximately 57 feet.

Look around this area until you find the cache.  Watch out for the poison ivy!

 

Multi/puzzle Directions

At the posted coordinates look at the sign.  The sign will have three different numbers on it.

Add the first three digit number to the North coordinates and subtract 430

Add the third number, it is a three digit number (leave out the hyphen) to the West coordinates and subtract 309

The new number should take you into Spring Lake Park near the lake at a broken retirement picnic.

You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.

 

As with the other globes open it lid side up and watch out for poison ivy.

Please Leave stamp, stamp pad, and log inside cache when done.
