Geocache Description:

(12 May 2005) PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION before attempting this cache.

Have fun. Seek a one quart Tupperware-ish thingie which contains keychains and a few ready-to-go micro containers. Do not put "junk" into this cache, as it is not very large. Exchanging a keychain for a keychain would be cool.

And PLEASE replace the cache exactly as you found it. I will come to haunt you in the afterlife if you do not.


WINTER WARNING: Do NOT attempt this cache alone. Do not cross the ice unless you keep a good distance between each other. Finally, ideally, have someone watching from shore with a cell phone (if not a rope) while attempting to cross the ice.

DO NOT BOAT to this cache. Watercraft are not allowed on this body of water. This caveat was actually the encrypted clue, so I apologize if this causes anyone inconvenience, but someone recently expressed their intent to take a boat out there.

The following link contains a list of the areas in the Cook County Forest Preserves where boating is actually permitted.

That being said, I had a great time exploring this area when I went out to place this cache. I hope you do, too. HAW HAW!!!

This cache is dedicated to my man Panther in the Den, who encouraged me in every one of my baby steps in this sport, and who is one of the kindest and most patient persons I have had the honor to know.

Cheers!
