Scarred Tree Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

duma332: It’s with some sadness I’ve decided to archive this cache. It’s been problematic over the years — disappearing, being placed in other trees, and once even chewed by an animal (well, I hope it was an animal!). I’ve moved out of the area and while I used to walk by it often on my way to volunteer at the zoo, those days are gone so it’s harder to maintain it. I’ll open the spot for someone else. Thanks to all who have found it or looked for it.

Geocache Description:


 

I enjoy walking through this park often and always admire the size of some of the trees.  Many show signs of trauma from the past but are still growing, and some are even thriving.  It's a good lesson for all of us, too.

I wanted to place a cache here so others can also enjoy the area.  You don't have to step too far from parking to reach GZ and at the correct angle you should be able to see the black bison.  Be aware of muggles; some times are busier than others.

Tweezers will be very helpful.

UPDATE: 6/27/19 — You can no longer see the black bison but it’s below your knees. UPDATE: 7/7/19 — It’s now no longer a bison but still a black micro. UPDATE: 5/30/20 — Because this can be a busy park at times, after signing the log please cover it. I’ve found it exposed several times. Thanks! UPDATE: 9/10/20 — It’s a new micro container. Please cover well. UPDATE 9/20/24 It’s now a black bison again.
