Geocache Description:

Park at N42 13.700, W88 11.905. The park name suggests open, flat land but there are small hills and interesting trees all along the path.
The cache is accessible from the horse trail. Please use the horse trail and DO NOT cut across from other trails. Much of the area is a dedicated nature preserve with sensitive and rare plants. Tickets could be issued for walking off trail.

LYONS PRAIRIE AND MARSH will be closed Nov 1-Jan 15. PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO ENTER THE PARK DURING THIS TIME.

We were surprised by the terrain and wildlife we saw. The day we placed the cache we saw nine deer running along a ridge.
