Geocache Description:


MH#1 = Mimaw's Helpers #1.  Grandson K-Dough turned 7 during covid "crisis".  Mimaw cut and pre-drilled holes and sent to K-dough to build after  opening at his virtual birthday party online.  K-dough built and returned to Mimaw for a few more adjustments.  Mimaw returned the cache to K-dough for painting.  K-dough and Mimaw were finally able to hang out together and place the geocache in this location.  This is a little known trail called "Siler Trails".  To locate this trailhead, turn off of Sloan Avenue onto E. Bank Street (towards the "no outlet" sign).  You can follow trails to get to within 20 feet of this geocache, which will be much easier to spot without the summer foliage we treked throught o place it.  K-dough placed a lot of good swag in his cache - please let each child take something, even if they do not have anything to trade for!  Cache started with a Hummer, Racing Truck, bouncy balls, a Geogem that we made together, a mini dinosaur egg, Ninja Mega blocks and Forky.  

Combination to first lock is 12-18-28.  You must open that lock and use the tool inside to figure out the numbers for the second lock.  You will use the tool to make the electrical connection that causes a buzzer to buzz.  When you hear the buzz, add the two numbers together to get one of the numbers in the combination.  Do this again to find a second connection. Weirdly enough, there are only two numbers in this lock's combination.  You will use those two numbers to open the lock.  For example:  If the numbers are X and Y you should try X-X-Y, X-Y-X, Y-X-X, Y-Y-X, Y-X-Y, and X-Y-Y.

Please be sure to return tool to it's proper place and lock both locks.  Have fun!

Geocache is located in city park.  Permission granted by currrent park director (even though city does not require permission, I asked and was given blessing by director to place this geocache here).  This cache's hiding style has been approved by the director of Siler Trail Park, the Ashland City Park director.
