Location: WISH Park
Time: 10 to 10:30 a.m.
Activity: Meet & Greet followed by an optional urban hike.
I love hiking with fellow cachers! The adventure, the conversation, the... rattlesnakes...
Unfortunately, living in Indy limits our access to long-distance hikes unless we are able to travel an hour or so down to Brown County or Hoosier National Forest. BUT Indy is filled with dozens of small- and medium-sized parks that boast miles of trails stretching all across the city, many of which are dotted with geocaches! I propose we get outside and enjoy them (especially now while the bugs and the weeds are in retreat)! Will you join me?
This event is a short (half hour) meet and greet at WISH Park, located off of Westlane Road north of the city. I know hiking isn't for everyone, so the meet and greet part is scheduled only for half an hour. Afterward (at 10:30), I'll be trekking it north over the river and through the woods to enjoy nature (and, I hope, the company of my fellow cachers). There are no trails in the wooded portion of the property, but there is an oldie cache from December 2002 (GCB4A1).
To earn the event smiley, all you have to do is show up in the parking lot and sign the log. This part is fully ADA accessible. The actual hiking part (which is not ADA accessible) is optional. I anticipate being back to the vehicles and on our way no later than 1:30 p.m.
Did you arrive late and still want your event smiley? No worries - I'll have the log book with me on the hike. Just head north or wait for when we get back to the cars. A name on the log book is a smiley indeed!
