Trees of South Hero: White Pine Geocache Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

MainePublisher: All geocache placements must have a responsive owner. The cache owner must be able to respond to issues that come up and to submit an "owner maintenance" log to remove the "needs maintenance" icon.

In addition to the "needs maintenance" logs and DNF logs, Goundspeak also uses a Health Score algorithm. https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713

In this case, Groundspeak has sent an email to the cache owner with no response. The cache owner did not respond to any of the cachers hoping to find the cache and did not respond to the reviewer note so the cache is now archived.

The cache location is now open for any Geocacher to place a new cache, including the original cache owner.

Geocache Description:


The Trees of SH Geocache adventure is on HOLD for now, sorry for the inconvience. We hope to put it back up soon. 

 

Welcome adventurer! Scattered across South Hero is a series of secret geocaches, and it’s up to YOU to find them! Each geocache is made up of a small box hidden near a particular kind of native tree.

Once you find one, you can log your find in the journal and take a free sticker!

Learn More: Visit www.shlt.org/geocache to learn fun facts about each tree.

Collect all 4 stickers and you can win a prize! Bring your stickers to the Worthen Library to claim.

Tree ID: Eastern white pine have evergreen needles in bunches of 5 leaves per bud, not 2 or 3 like other pines. 

Trees of South Hero Geocache Adventure is a joint project of South Hero Land Trust, the Worthen Library, and the South Hero Historical Society. Learn more about the project at www.shlt.org/geocache
