This cache is located on public land administered by the College of Forestry, Oregon State University. It is located in the general area of Peavy Arboretum. The Arboretum is in a beautiful area with trees native to many different areas. It is part of the larger McDonald Forest complex. It was moved to this updated location on 2/20/10.
Cachers may want to spend some time exploring the Arboretum. There are maps with information about the various plants and trees located there. The Arboretum is a popular gateway to explore the further reaches of McDonald Forest and has provided an outdoor teaching lab for generations of both children and adults. Its history is rich, with ancient Native American sites, the home of the original Oregon State Forest Nursery, as well as the site of a Civilian Conservation Corp camp in the 1930's.
During the dry season, the terrain is fine for strollers and powered wheelchairs, especially if approached from the west from the parking lot, but only during late spring, summer and early fall. Rains make the ground a little soft during winter season, even though it is mostly grassy.
