Geocache Description:


 

A Basic Series that's targeted to Newcomers to the Game: perfect for helping you develop an addiction to the Game and become a full-fledged Geocache Junkie.


(Kid Friendly Neighborhood Park with incredible Playground for Young Ones.)


(Small-Dog and Large-Dog Parks within for your Caching Canine; Water fountains around entire Park either have Dog Water Fountains attached or Bowls set beside.)


(I have included Waypoints for both the Main Driveway Entrance and the Auxiliary Parking Lot for those who want to navigate here.)


This Cache is part of a Series that will require Trail walking, but with full Amenities nearby. I have provided Waypoints for all the Trailheads that I know of. There are both major and minor Trails; some have become runways for storm runoff. Do not worry, you cannot get lost here: you can only go so far.


All of the Trails intersect. If you appear to suddenly be moving away from the GZ, relax, you will soon come to an intersecting Trail that you can pick up.


This is on the Purple Trail which branches off, and the rejoins, the Main Trail. This Trail is prone to flooding that occurs at its lowest level during and following rain.  Come after a Rain and it will resemble a Rice Paddy; give it a few Days and it will reduce to soggy; at best the Ground will reduce to just moist.


This Cache is at the lowest level of the Trail, which has a Terrain Rating of 2.0 because of overgrowth in the summer. The East end of the Trail is a 2.0 Terrain Rating (mild slope) and is easily seen; the West End access is a 3.0 Terrain Rating due to its steepness.


This particular Cache Location can have your GPS going erratic. The Cache is on the Trail --- no need to venture off of it --- so at worst you will be marching 16' back and forth.​


Log only; bring a Pen.


Please be sure to place Cache back in its original location.​


(BTW- No Ghostwriting!  If your friends weren't here with you when you found it, please don't enter them in the Log nor have them Log the find as theirs.  It's poor Gamesmanship.
