Geocache Description:

The cache is in Lewinsville Park. No great challenges in terrain, just a pleasant walk.

The location of this cache demonstrates why Hedra helix (English Ivy) is on the Alien Invasive Plant list of Virginia and most states. See www.nps.gov/plants/alien/pubs/midatlantic/hehe.htm English Ivy aggressively swallows and kills native species by slow strangulation and blocking out sunlight vital to survival. Your journey to the cache will also take you by a display of another dangerous alien species, Ampelopsis brevipedunculata, Porcelain-Berry. Oh, and watch out for the Lonicera japonica(honeysuckle)tendrils that like to grab Geocachers!

Oh yes, the cache is the standard ammo box, filled with wonderful, amazing items, including a FTF Certificate, special FTF and 2d to Find rewards and Obie, the Friendly Alien TB. Please trade up or even to keep the cache appealing. (Let's keep golf balls out of this one!) Also, please replace it just as you found it, thank you.

Remember, the terrain is a 2. If it doesn't look like a 2, find another way.
