Geocache Description:


This cache has been stolen twice in the same week! It will have to be relocated, I'm afraid.

 

This geocache takes you slightly off the beaten path to The Ravine in Brooklyn's Prospect Park. The Ravine’s stream and steep gorge is a recreation of the landscape of the Adirondack Mountains by the park's original designers. The Ravine meanders through Brooklyn’s only forest and passes a babbling stream, a verdant pool, and a fall along the way. With no sights and sounds of the busy city, you are surrounded by some of the oldest trees in the park and the calming sound of running water. Often you can see starlings, sparrows and other birds bathing here, as well as mallards and herons. Woodpeckers, hawks, and even owls have been seen in this part of the woods.

 

From the Greeks, who worshipped the amazing properties of triangles, to The Three Stooges, the number three has had a special relationship with human perception, art, music, science, religion and every other field.

 

Groups of three will be your friend in this endeavor. Listen for the sound of water and start at the waterfall. Your first group of three will be towering in front of you; climb to the highest one. Then look for a group of three that climbs to the sky and another group of three on the ground in the shape of a lotus flower. You'll find what you're looking for under the lotus flower.
