THE GEOCACHE
This two-stage geocache is one of 66 geocaches placed for the 2023 West Bend $1,000 Cache Ba$h. The theme of this year’s Cache Ba$h is BLAST FROM THE PAST, with this cache highlighting the animated character Dumbo the Elephant. You’ll need to find and put together the coordinates at the first stage to get the coordinates for the final stage. A solution checker is available below for those that wish to confirm their coordinates. Please leave the bash stamp that is in the cache for other finders to use.
THE GROUNDS
Faith Haven is a 150-acre private property with ponds, trails, forest, prairies, farmland, a chapel, and two rental homes. Originally owned by the Faith Haven Chapel, it is now a welcome place for all of those who wish to stroll the grounds to enjoy the peace and quiet of the outdoors. The five geocaches placed on this property are placed with permission and are located a very short distance from the trails or edges of the mowed areas. Suggested route to find the caches is to start with the 2326 Scooby Doo cache and go in a counter-clockwise direction, following the map as shown below. Total distance of the loop if following the suggested route is approximately 1.5 miles.
BLAST FROM THE PAST – DUMBO
Dumbo is one of the very first animated fantasy films produced by Walt Disney Productions. Released in 1941, the main character is a young elephant in the circus who is nicknamed "Dumbo" because of his big ears. The young elephant learns that he is capable of flying by using his ears as wings and becomes an overnight sensation! The movie was met with generally favorable reviews, and in 2017 the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically and aesthetically significant."
Stay on the trails whenever possible and we hope you enjoy your walk through the area!
