Geocache Description:

I couldn't find the name of this lake on any maps or my gps. If anyone knows they can let us know.

Walnut Grove Park

Because of its environmental, historic and social significance, Walnut Grove Park is one of the few neighborhood parks in Eugene to be maintained as a natural environment. It is adjacent to a western pond turtle preserve and bordered to the south by Flat Creek and to the west and north by Dianna’s/Kelly Pond, an old borrow pit. Future housing is planned on its east side. Central to the site is a historic, but deteriorating walnut orchard. The plan for the park, which was developed in collaboration with area neighbors, emphasizes native plant and wildlife preservation and enhancement, passive recreation, and educational opportunities and includes elements such as enhancement of turtle habitat, deck/lookout over the pond, interpretive signage, a boardwalk through the cottonwood wetland/forest in the north part of the park, and fencing to protect sensitive turtle habitat.

I have put out too many easy caches lately, so I tried to make this a little more challenging for you. Please re-hide as you found it.

My hint for you is a picture of the container you are searching for.
