WA State has a rich history. The people that lived, settled and died here are often memorialized in many cities, places, parks and street names. This GeoTour has been set up to showcase our state's varied Cultures, Peoples and noteworthy Places.
At this place you will be very close to some of Woodland's famous (and infamous) Historical Pioneers. After finding this cache, you may want to take a few moments to pay respect to some of our forebears whose names you will see throughout our small town. Please be careful as you walk here. There are many eyes watching you and your movements, so please use stealth during this search and find.
This cache IS NOT near any of our Historical Pioneers
Best/Safest Parking has been noted with Waypoints, one for Able-bodied cachers and another for DIfferently-abled.
DO NOT PARK ON ANY NEARBY STREETS as your very important safety is not guaranteed there. Please use designated waypoint parking. You WILL need to make a short walk from parking to the cache (approx 100 yards or less).
Remember to write down the CODE WORD found inside the cache container and keep track of these codes.
Please BRING YOUR OWN PEN.
This cache is only accessible from Dawn to Dusk.
If you are in need of nourishment or beverages before or after finding this cache, I highly recommend the Woodland Corner Store where you may have parked. The owner and staff are very pleasent, the shop is well-stocked, and the deli makes amazing meals.
Good Luck and have Fun.
In September 2002, a group of 19 concerned geocachers scheduled a meeting after hearing that the Washington State Parks was considering banning geocaches in the state park system. Out of this meeting, the Washington State Geocaching Association (WSGA) was "born" with its core values of promoting geocaching as a fun, family-oriented outdoor activity that increases awareness and appreciation of the environment and our parks and trails, provide opportunities for participants to enjoy geocaching and to socialize with other geocaches, educate park systems and land managers about geocaching and its benefits, increase awareness and support of the geocaching through interaction with other outdoor groups and the public, encourage low-impact geocaching and promote stewardship of our natural resources, and support "Cache In Trash Out" activities to help maintain parks and trail systems.
In 2022, the WSGA turns 20 years young. To celebrate this milestone, the WSGA is hosting a 20th-anniversary GeoTour. This GeoTour will give you the opportunity to travel to all corners of the Evergreen State while you search for 140 GeoTour caches. To make it easier to tackle such a large GeoTour, each of our 7 regional chapters will host a bite-sized GeoTour consisting of 20 GeoTour caches with the entire GeoTour consisting of 140 caches. To learn more about our GeoTour, please visit the GeoTour page on our website which you can find HERE. We hope that you enjoy getting back out on the road while touring around Washington State. If you have any questions about our GeoTour, you can reach out to us via the contact tab on our website.
