Geocache Description:

Relocated due to bees. Please use the updated coordinates. Do not go to the old coordinates for your own safety!

This cache is now 20 years old!

This is a nice traditional cache in one of Fairfax County's best parks. It was originally placed by TN67 in September, 2004. It is perfect to introduce anyone to geocaching. Please enjoy a nice walk around the lake to grab the other caches in this park too.


You will be looking for a specially camouflaged container placed in a traditional hiding spot. When originally hidde, it was just off the trail and no bushwhacking was required. Now it is a bit deeper in the woods (for more protection), with just a bit of thorns and brush to step over. The box is filled with a logbook, pens, pencils, assorted toys and some little surprises, including Word of Mouth (GCJF5Y) coordinates. Practice your stealth skills as the nearby trail is very active and you may be surprised by a jogger, cyclist or assorted muggles at anytime!

The cache was adopted by NetworkCacher on 7/05/07.

NOTICE: Please be respectful of the park hours. Burke Lake Park, like most FCPA Parks, is open dawn to dusk unless otherwise posted. DO NOT ENTER this park after hours, you will be trespassing. If you are stopped you can be ticketed, or arrested and you will jeopardize the future of geocaching in local parks. DO NOT HUNT this cache at night!
