Geocache Description:

Cache is a 50 cal Ammo box located just off the Ill & Mich Canal Path near the new I355 bridge spanning the Des Plaines river valley.

Future view from cache

I don't know if you're like me, but after waiting so long for the I355 extension, I find watching its construction fascinating. So I thought it might be fun to put a cache out there where the progression of the construction can be documented. If you stop by, please take a picture and post it. For those who did not bring a camera, there is a camera in the cache. Please take a picture of the bridge and/or yourself, make a note of the picture # and the date and I will post the pictures to the page.

You do not need to go near or cross any railroad tracks.

Parking 1 1/2 mile to the east will allow uninterrupted access to the cache. There is parking 1/2 mile to the west but access to the cache may be restricted during certain periods of construction.
