Everyone has heard of Woodstock, the 3 day rock and roll festival that took place in New York between August 15th to 18th, 1969. Everyone also knows that in 1994 and 1999, there were two more festivals. But, how many people know that, right here in South Park, there is an amphitheater, that hosts weekly free concerts of varying genres every Friday night throughout the summer months. So, for this cache, we are going to mash Woodstock and the South Park amphitheater to host our very own music festival that will take place over the course of several days nights. The listed coordinates on this cache page are for the South Park amphitheater. You can go there, but there is nothing there for this cache. You can go there every Friday Night during the summer to see one of the free concerts. You will need to do all of your homework for this cache, using other methods. To figure out the coordinates for this cache, you will need to find information about all three Woodstock’s that took place. So, let’s get ready to put together our festival!

Now for the cache you are searching for. You will be looking for a medium size lock n lock container. The container is not far from where 1 trail connects into another trail. You will be able to see Corrigan Drive the entire way to ground zero.
South Park is open from sunrise to Midnight. Parking is located in the large parking lot close to the trail head. The trail can be very muddy and slick, especially after recent rains. There is a small creek crossing that you will have to navigate over. In most instances, you should be able to jump over it, without getting your feet wet. There are numerous cache located around the park, so make it a day and enjoy many of the caches in the park. There are also several playgrounds located around the park for the young ones as well.
