Geocache Description:


Welcome to the Wildlife Encounter Nature Trail!

Cache is NOT at the posted coordinates!

But they ARE a good place to start!

This cache can be found DAY or NIGHT, and is less than a half mile round trip walk to complete.

To find this cache at at NIGHT, bring a flashlight and follow the reflectors (little white dots), which are usually found at eye level on a tree trunk. These reflectors will guide one to the cache.

To find this cache during the DAY, look for the little white dots, and/or study all the information provided, such as the hint, waypoints, photos, and the following clues....

To find the cache,
Just bring a flash.
No need to thrash,
Or make a splash.

There’s lots of spots
For LITTLE WHITE DOTS.
So, say "Why not?"
Give this a shot!

With fleet of feet
We like CONCRETE.
Keeps one discreet
And HELPS COMPLETE.

To be more clear,
Head to the DEER.
Don't get too near,
For one must VEER.

Hippity HOP HOP
To the next stop.
Don’t flip or flop,
Just hop hop hop!

Ding Ding, Ding Ding,
An ARMORED thing!
What does it sing?
"A turn is near-ing!"

Just DO NOT GO
To BUFFALO...
Don't say hello
Or take photo.

Oh me, oh my,
What next I spy?
Let’s walk on by,
As these are SLY.

Go on, go quick.
Do not frolic.
Look for a STICK
That's in the pic.

HERE one turns RIGHT
And lights the night.
The way is bright
To the final site.

HOO HOO, HOO HOO!
Is one more clue.
In this, you too
Will log a new!

What’s this I see
Down by a TREE?
Yippee! Yippee!
I get a SMILEY!

Don't stay away
If day's your forte.
PHOTOS guide the way!
Hip hip HOO-ray!

Congratulations to TigreToot for FTF!
