Geocache Description:

There is a parking area, with the sign saying Public Recreation Area. You may park there if you wish and take the short walk to the river.The name of this cache comes from the series of rapids that used to be here years ago, before they put in the dam that is down river from this site. This used to be a popular swimming spot and now is a place to picnic and launch a small boat or canoe.

PLEASE NOTE THAT I HAVE FOUND WHEN THE LEAVES ARE ON THE TREES, ACCURATE READINGS ARE HARDER TO GET.(So I have supplied a little helper clue)

Cache is a medium sized "Lock & Lock" container, and contains the following Log book and pencils, new Pepsi Cola pencil, SLU Soccer Pin, Football Helmet pencil sharpner, US Postal Service golf divot tool with ball marker, A winning Mt. Dew cap that is good for one free music download, a Akwesasne Mohawk Casino chip, Ottawa Senators mini hockey mug, Darth Vader Star Wars slammer, small pen knife with scissors,blade file twezzers and tooth pick, plastic "crystal" type key chain.

This area looks as it could use some help, please bring a trash bag if possible, I only had one, I could have used 4 or 5

CONGRATULATIONS TO GOLDEN_SPIKE FOR THE FTF

NOTICE and WARNING. This container is an official geocache, and has been hidden here so that other people may enjoy finding it, and then leave it for others to find after them. Cachers never remove someone’s geocache without the owner's permission. If you remove a cache container without permission, you are STEALING. This is a crime in New York State. We call it larceny. If you are convicted of any grade of larceny offense, you will have a permanent criminal record that will be entered in the New York and FBI’s national databases.

When an owner places a cache on public lands, the cache remains the property of the owner. The fact that it is placed on public land does not make it fair game for anybody to take. Think about it: if I leave my bike at a public park, and you take it, you are still stealing my bike.

So please be warned: more and more cache owners are taking steps to protect their caches. This cache may be subject to video surveillance. If you are seen taking or damaging this cache, or conspiring with others to do so, you can be criminally charged for this activity, regardless of your age. It is not funny, it is not a prank, and it is not OK. Please don’t do it. Other people like to have fun hunting for these caches, so please just leave this one alone. It is the right thing to do. Thank you.
