This cache has been archived.

Bearpaw: This was our favorite of caches we hid in this park. Our time has come to hand the park over to another cacher. We had so much fun with these we hid. Thanks for the good times. The park is now open to the next cacher. First come first serve! Thanks again for the long haul!!!

This challenging winter accessible cache is in a wonderful park for families, & friends to have fun & play. There’s a pond stocked with bluegill, a playground for the kids to play in, and nature-trails for those you like to walk or bike. BUG REPELLENT IS A MUST & on the days that the rain has fallen, a pair of boots MIGHT come in handy just in case. Make a day out of it perhaps. Bring a picnic basket, fishing poles, even a tent for camping as the Cub Scouts camp here on many occasions.

Rumor has it that a long time ago there was a troll who once controlled a certain Troll-Bridge. It was said that he vanished and left his treasure behind for others to find. However historians state that he took most of treasure and hid it not far from the Troll-Bridge. Fearful that some one might take his only prize, he hid it in a place that no one will see. The troll said, "Out of sight out of mind! I'll hide it up a tree so no one else can see!". Just in case there were "muggles" that wanted to try and get a glimpse, he made it tricky to get at his hide. Can you figure it out?

And while you’re in the area, try finding our other hides "Williamson Cash-n-Dash" (GC238M4), "Williamson-Micro" (GCK8TZ), "Williamson Park Cache" (GCWA07), and "Troll-Bridge Micro" (GCJGXX).
