Geocache Description:

Take a stroll down the Cedar Point Marsh Trail and gather clues along the way to help you locate the cache. Note: Cache is not at the above coordinates. They are for the parking area near the trailhead.

PLEASE RE-HIDE WELL!

This cache was adopted by me, the original cache was placed by Josh and Kati. Thanks to them for the original clues and getting this up and running.

Follow the short loop of the Cedar Point Trail clockwise, taking note of the informational signs along the way. There's a map at the beginning of the trail that can help you stay on the short loop. Don't use the large sign with the map as the first sign for the purposes of the clues below; start with the first short informational sign. Use the clues below in combination with the information on the signs to help you decode the coordinates of the cache, which is located nearby, only about 40 feet off of a beaten path. Bushwhack appropriately. It's a good idea to print out this information so you can take notes along the way.

The cache is a med/large size tupperware container.
