Red Flint is a new park as of October of 2023.
With my wife carda1, we explored the park a bit, and came up with a tenative plan on cache hides.
This one turned into being more difficult than expected to place, so am placing this cache as a findable cache from a safe location.
Please be safe while looking for geocaches. The Difficulty and Terrain rating is for this being a nasty evil hide.
Have some expierence crawling around and over this kind of a bridge, it sure makes clothes dirty, sorry about that.
Ask for a hint if needed. Yes another palindrome, your welcome.

Red Flint
Address/Access:
Access on the west side where the Chippewa River State Trail crosses Porterville Road.
Description:
Red Flint Recreation Area is a 233 acre parcel located in the Town of Brunswick, WI. The site is located along the Chippewa River and contains a lake approximately 104 acres in size. The area was previously a sand and gravel quarry. The Chippewa River State Trail borders the north and west boundaries of the recreation area. Now abandoned, the Chicago, Milwaukee, St Paul and Pacific railroad corridor is along the southern border of the property.
You can find many native trees such as Red and Sugar Maple, Hackberry, River Birch, White Pine and Oak, as well as Spruce and Juniper. The property is also noted to have a small prairie habitat with sandy soil, prairie grasses, and Red Cedar. A peninsula filled with Pine juts out from the south shoreline of the lake.
