Geocache Description:


This cache is placed for the Haunt in Halmich XII event. All event attendees who chose to find this cache the night of the event are eligible to claim FTF status. In addition, this cache is placed in Halmich Park, a City of Warren Park; caching hours are 7am-10pm.


The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

A letterbox hybrid cache is based off of letterboxing, which predates geocaching by 150 years. In order to find most letterbox caches, you are required to start at the posted coordinates and follow along the story in the cache description which will lead you to the final container with a logbook and a stamp for you to stamp your personal notebook (again, another adaptation from letterboxing). We decided to mix things up this Haunt in Halmich with several of these letterboxes. Hope you have fun!

All nine letterboxes in Halmich Park revolve around a boy named Josh and his adventures dealing with the ghouls of Haunted Halmich Park. All the letterboxes are numbered in the title based on their location in the park - it is highly recommended to follow them in order (you don't have to start at number one) to make an efficient trip around the park.


Using your GPS, find your way to the posted coordinates to start the letterbox.

Josh found himself in a familiar spot but, not being much of a climber on these units, decided to keep both feet on the ground. While looking southwest, he noticed a big wooden stick in the grass with a white piece of paper at the end of the path. Curious to what it said, Josh went over there and learned that it said that he couldn't warm up, which was dissapointing as it was a cold, rainy day just like most Haunt in Hamich events. Near the fenceline, he noticed a cut down tree and would follow that two trees south to find the cache.
