VectorHound: I award the "Last-to-Find" honors to GeoSeekers. And congratulations on using ingenuity to solve the puzzle.
Unfortunately, the underbrush has grown so much that the old house was no longer even visible from the location of the sign describing the old house, and so they removed the sign. And, since the sign was a key to the puzzle, this one is being archived. It's been there for 6 years, and 104 visits, remaining mostly in good shape, with interesting swag. But traffic has dwindled over time.
So, its time to open this fine park for another Geocacher to make a hide.
Thank you, Three Rivers Park District for your pro-geocaching assistance and cooperation.
Thanks for all who visited, and especially those who helped with maintenence.
P.S. This was once a part of 3 "available-by-boat" Lake Minnetonka caches.... but over 6 years time, not one finder came by boat. All have now been archived.
