Geocache Description:

Come check out the Wollochet Estuary.

This cache has been moved to the other side of Artondale Creek, where it is now easier to access, but it is still within the Wollochet Bay Estuary Park. Keep an eye out for the cache's namesake bird in the mudflats.

Please make sure to securely wedge the container back into its hiding spot, and keep this beautiful area litter free. The cache is a plastic container.

* A note on the Wollochet Estuary if you are interested: Pierce County bought 35 acres of Wollochet Estuary land in 1999 as part of a permanent conservation project. In the spring of 2007, PenMet Parks completed the purchase of property expanding Wollochet Bay Estuary Park from 12 to 14 acres, adding another 200 lineal feet of shoreline public access. The land must be managed in a way that preserves the natural state of the wetlands and tidelands, so only passive activities, such as education walks and nature watching, are allowed here. The Wollochet Estuary is located between 2 salmon-bearing creeks and links 4 distinct habitat types: mud flats, saltmarsh, forested wetlands and forested uplands. Hope you enjoyed your visit!
