Geocache Description:


This is probably the most difficult one placed for the 2025 WGA Spring Picnic. Please stay on the trail as long as coordinates allow. It's a long hike from either direction, but the closeby views of the Mississippi will make it worth it. Those calming views might help in your attempts to open the 3D-printed puzzle container.

This is available during the park hours of 6 AM to 11 PM year-round. A vehicle admission sticker is required to enter the park. To access the cache, one could park at the Homestead Picnic Shelter parking lot for the Mississippi Ridge trail. Others could park on the south end of the trail, at the Heggan Point picnic area.

At Wyalusing State Park, one can camp 500 feet above the confluence of the Wisconsin and Mississippi rivers. One of Wisconsin's oldest state parks, Wyalusing features family and group campsites, hiking trails, a canoe trail, Native American burial mounds, bird watching, fishing, boating, bicycling and picnicking on bluff top overlooks. Wyalusing's overnight group lodge and dormitories can be reserved by contacting the property office. See more: https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/topic/parks/wyalusing
