This cache is located in Miamisburg’s Sycamore Park. The entrance
to the park is located at the corner of Heincke road and
Miamisburg/Centerville road (State route 725). Drive into the park
and park in the last parking lot on the road. I have been trying to
place this cache for the last 15 months. I wanted to be the first
to place an “approved” cache in a Miamisburg park. Patience and
perseverance have paid off. I received the go ahead from the
director of Miamisburg Parks and Recreation. I decided to name the
cache “Sycamore Fossils” because of the stream that runs through
the park is an excellent source for finding brachiopods,
cephalopods, crinoids, and horn coral. These fossils were alive
during the Ordovician Period (438 to 505 million years ago. If you
are interested in geology, it is a great place to look around. When
you are trying to find the cache, remember this: No bushwacking is
required. Please take a moment after you have discovered the cache
to make sure that you are not being observed. Cover the cache back
up and make the area as natural looking as possible. Remember:
“Cache in Trash out” Original contents of the cache. Plastic Pig,
Plastic Frog Plastic Chicken, Plastic Elf Tape measure, Two pair of
gloves Combination lock, Auto scan FM radio 4” spring clamps,
Flashlight
