UPDATE (November 15, 2023) - The Wildlife refuge is now considering this a minimum maintenance trail - meaning just that - it is not maintained much. I tried to run through the area, and I was turned back because of the overgrowth (vs running gear). I am sure I could have made it with hiking clothes, but it is certainly a mix of deer trail and bush whack. Seems like the winter months (with limited snow) may be the best time to go for this. I will try again during that time. If I can not make it through, I will sadly archive.

Hike With Me - Whereigo version!

The cache is not at these coordinates.
 But this is where you should start your journey.

This is the next of Run/Hike/Bike with Me caches that I have started since moving to MN. Since most of my cache finds are done while exercising, I thought I would offer this delight to others. These caches will not necessarily be hard to find, but you will have to put some miles on the legs for them. So lace em up, grab some water, and come join the fun

This hike will be a 4.ish-mile (total) hike out and back on the Cliff Fen Trail. I would not try a mountain bike down this was as it would be pretty tough for the first 1/2 mile or so. The final cache is in a winter friendly location not far from where you parked.

Hope you have a great hike.

Earn the 75 and 150 mile Pathtag!

So far there have been 37 of these Hike/Bike/Run With Me Multi-caches - if you were to complete them all, you would have travelled more than 210 miles. Currently (August 2023), there are 32 active geocaches totaling 185 miles (This includes three Hike With Me Adventure Labs). I wanted to give something to the geocachers who have "put a big dent" in trying to find these. So I created two pathtags for all cachers who completed at least 75 and 150 miles while trying to get smileys on these caches. On each of the cache pages, I mention how long the travel should be for that cache. They vary from just a couple miles to a 20-mile mountain bike ride.

Here is a bookmark list of all of the caches.

So, take a look at your finds, add up the miles, and if you are more than 75 or 150 miles, let me know. You can either PM me, email me, or just grab me at an event. You do not have to show/prove anything to me about you qualifying. I will give you one if you say you have qualified.
