Geocache Description:


Welcome to Horseshoe Lake. The largest multi-purpose municipal park in Roxbury Township. You can do most anything here. Soccer, football, baseball, baskeball, volleyball, walk, run, bicycle, swim & fish in the lake! Ohhhh yes, and geocache as well. There are several geocaches within the park, as well as the beginning of DTLee's WMG power trail that continues south along the Black River. 

Walking around the park one afternoon recently and thought that this park needs some additonal geocaches. But becasue of the high muggle factor, yes, they have to be micros, and I thought doing my favorite type of puzzle hides would fit the bill. I love a good field puzzle, but I want to make them easy enough for the non-puzzler geocachers to find them as well. 

The posted coordinates bring you to an informational kiosk about Horseshoe Lake. All the information you need, you can obtain from looking at the map in from of you! Not telling you exactly what, but you'll be able to figure it out. I promise! Parking is very close nearby so you will only need a short walk to this location. 

ASSUME N 40 51. (A)(B)(C)  W 074 074 38. (D)(E)(F)  Easy enough, right?!? Search the plaque for the answers you will need!

A = Number of volletball courts (on the map)

B = Green Soccer fields plus Blue Soccer fields

C = Number of beach umbrellas plus basketball courts

D = Number of picnic tables

E = Number of Life Rings

F = Number of baseballs on the map

There you go! Included a coordinate checker, even though I don't think you'll need it, but some people expect it! Be wary of muggles, for they can be present at any time. Please replace the cache container in the same manner in which it was found! Thanks, and have fun in the search!
