Geocache Description:


This is 1 of 3 caches for my 2 German Shepherd Dogs, Lightning and Sally.  These woods were their favorite place to go for a walk.  I could take them off leash and let them run around while I walked the trails.  There are 2 places where you can park to access the trail. The junction of these trails is listed as a waypoint.  If you continue westerly on the wider trail, you end up behind ICUMedical (formerly Smiths Medical). Also see GCBBMZ4 and GCBBN03.

This cache is at the site of a fierce battle.  While on the return part of our walk, we passed a tree with a hole under the roots.  And a young raccoon hiding in there.  The dogs spun around and the fight was on. Lightning did most of the fighting from our side.  Sally stuck her nose in a few times and got a slice on it for her troubles. I eventually got a hold of her and tied her to a tree.  Took longer to grab Lighting, since I did not want to put my hands in the middle of that fight.  Lightning was unscathed. The raccoon was another story as he limped off.

You are looking for a 5.5 x 8-inch lock-n-lock with camo tape. Good for swapping loot. Cache contents appropriate for the seasonal pond to the northeast.
