Wetland Discovery Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

"Paws"itraction: (Sitting down with some cheese, prepare for the whine)

Well darn it, it's time to archive this one. The muggling or animaling to visit ratio got to high. At least it got a good run.

What got me was the terrain rating today. It was at least a 4 and with my ankles it felt like a five. The ground was so wet that it was hard slugging and I almost lost both boots. If that was not enough, there was a lot of brush fall along the soaked trail. Guess I should have expected that when we put a cache in a wetland. Soneone had also left a pair of shorts in the cache and both shorts and cache were soaked. Yuck! Since when did shorts become a trade item.

Amazingly the plastic container that Corp of Discovery was bone dry unlike the final ammo can stage.

Sorry for the whine people but this was my worst cache archiving to date.

Geocache Description:

Cache is located in Jordan Wetlands, a small "wetland" area on the south side of Garrett.
Parking Coordinates: N 41° 19.825, W 085° 08.209

This park is maintained by the Garrett Parks department. Depending on the time of year, the trails may be clearly defined or they may be difficult to find.
We recommend BUG SPRAY and long pants. There are stinging nettles, thorn bushes, and likely some poison ivy. Mosquitoes and biting flies are heavy in this area.

Second stage is an ammo can.
Contents are the usual range of goodies, and an FTF prize.

Your GPS's BACKTRACK feature will come in very handy at this cache. At the very least, WAYPOINT your parking spot!
