Geocache Description:

This cache is a coin exchange as long as people respect the cache. Please trade any odd or unique coins.

Tower Hill State Park is open to vehicles May through October.  The Park Manager said in the winter months it is o.k. to park outside the park and walk in.  Wisconsin State vehicle admission pass required for all vehicles entering park or parked vehicles on the side of a road bordering park land.

Cache is within feet of the trail.  Please try not to bushwhack too much due to the presence of Garlic Mustard (see warning below).  Make sure to take a walk over to the nearby smelting house to see why the old oxen were here in the first place.

Karl Heil granted permission to place this cache.

   THINGS TO BE CAUTIOUS OF:

1) Garlic Mustard has nearly taken over this park.  Every precaution should be made to prevent the spread of this invasive species.  Take the time to clean your shoes at the trailhead before and AFTER your hike.

2) This park is known for it's mosquito population.  Don't say I didn't warn you!
