When we started hiding caches on this trail, eight or nine years ago, we avoided this area because of a lot of kid activity, bike trails through the woods, forts, and alot of general use, other than the Wild Goose Trail. Today, as we're doing maint. on our caches, there don't seem to be any such thing going on. What are kids doing nowadays? I remember sand boxes, Cowboys and Indians, and bicycling to Grandmas, as summer activities. Also old enough to remember harvesting sweet corn with just a truck, and a group of men filling it up by hand. Harvesting peas, the whole vines were loaded on a truck, and we'd wait at a stop sign, hoping to grab some if they hung off the back.
If you care to share a few memories, please do!
As the Wild Goose Trail is owned by the DNR, a geo-cache notification form has been submitted to the Fond Du Lac Parks and Planning Committee, the managers of this property. Caches placed on DNR property require approval of the land manager.
