For the kids: While returning from the North Pole Pooh lost his
way. He stopped to rest by the side of a lake now known as Lake
Elise in the John Largay Memorial Preserve (a Middlebury Land Trust
Property). Being a silly old bear he left behind his cache of
goodies that he had collected. Pooh needs your help to find it; as
a reward he would happily trade one of his goodies for one of
yours.
For the adults: JAMM has multiple personalities … this cache is
an attempt to please them all. The cache is well hidden near the
lake. We first wanted to put it on the island but there is no way
to get there. Many years ago Lake Elise served as the water source
for the center of Middlebury including Westover School. Today that
need is served by wells, you may see them in the area. The property
is well maintained, the path is wide and flat and easy to
navigate.
What’s in the Cache? Lot’s of cool stuff. In the tradition of
Bob and Angelica (who’s cache we found first) we tried to have it
well stocked. It includes a dog toy for YodaDog – a reward for a
good hide on the bridge, slippers for Barefoot – going Barefoot in
the woods can be dangerous, a magnifying glass so MilesStone can
find Katydid. A compass for CTGeoscout – “Be Prepared”. A whistle
for the Honey Wolves – so thier masters can call them home. Hulk
and Spiderman playing cards – a blast from our past – for devinpro.
Thanks to all of you and Eversole, Geo Ho & Mopar, Zingerhead
for our first caches. Lot’s of other great stuff too… too much to
list here.
