Welcome to Baw Beese Sail GeoArt.  The cache container is not at the posted coordinates. You must answer the question to find the cache.  
 

Baw Beese Lake has a colorful history that this geoart will shed light on.  
The series is along the Baw Beese Walking Trail which is also a part of the North Country Trail system.

Parking can be found at the corner of Griswold and Barnard Streets and in the three parks along the public side of Baw Beese Lake. The three parks are Waterworks, Owens, and Sandy Beach. Sometimes there is a fee to enter Sandy Beach.
