This Geoart was created for our members and the geocaching community by the Michigan Geocaching Organization (MiGO) Challenge Work Group. The purpose of our organization is to promote the sport of Geocaching in Michigan via improved communications and to provide information to the public about our activities and the sport of geocaching. If you are not a member already, please join and support our organization at www.mi-geocaching.org.
This geoart is along the Fred Meijer Heartland Trail on a section that runs from Stanton to Edmore. The trail is a paved asphalt surface. You are welcome to hike, bike or skate the trail to find the caches. All caches are placed within the right of way of the trail. There is parking in Stanton, McBride and Edmore. Edmore has restroom facilities. Coordinates for parking areas are listed in the additional waypoints.
You will need to collect clues in the 60 caches that comprise this Hiker Dude Geoart to get the coordinates for the final and the combination to the pink lock. Each clue can be found in multiple caches.
