Geocache Description:


This cache is near the site of a now Archived cache called Tree Lovers in Herndon, GCYFZA. Although it was a pleasant cache,I never got why it was called that since I always thought that name meant the cache would be a tree climb.* Now that it is gone, I've had my eye on a tree here for some time, and I can finally claim it. In doing so, I can give this name justice and honor the previous cache. All is well. 

*I later learned it was named that to honor John DeNoyer and Ann Csonka, two people who were influential in creating Runnymeade Park and Spring Street Park.

 

For Most Physically Challenging

 

When placing this cache, I forgot to put the logbook in it, so I had to climb back down and back up. It was fine with me. I enjoy climbing trees, hope you do too laugh.

The Episcopal Church nearby knows of the cache. Although they are aware of its placement, don't search for this at night. It might look suspicious if I were a driver driving by and just saw a light shining from a tree, oh and it could also be dangerous.

Things to Awknowledge:

  • Bring bugspray (who knows how long you'll be in that tree)
  • No night caching
  • Bring a camera for the view (just kidding . . . or am I)

Happy caching!
