Bay Leaf Traditional Cache

This is a traditional micro cache located in quaint Harper Park. I suggest parking in the parking area at the lower trailhead. The coordinates are provided below.

Use the trails starting at the lower trailhead. The distance from the parking area to the cache coordinates is less than 500 feet. Of course, the distance to the cache via the trails will be longer but that’s much better than bushwhacking 500 feet. The cache is accessible via the trail and it is hidden in an area that is not a great distance from the trail. The terrain from the trail to the cache is relatively easy with little bushwhacking required if you make your way carefully. So you can stay on the trails and enjoy your walk until you get near the cache coordinates and begin your search. Along your way take note of the many nature trail signs identifying local plants, and take a short break on one of the nice benches erected by the local Boy Scouts.

You are looking for a micro-sized cache with a logbook in a plastic, zip-lock bag. You will need to bring your own pen. The container is a painted, plastic jar. Please put back the cache in the same place and re-hide the cache exactly the way you found it.
