Geocache Description:


The Prairie Path 12 Step Program is a series of caches created to reduce geocachers addiction to oil. Rather than driving from cache to cache, this series is placed along the Illinois Prairie Path and is most easily completed by bike. Each cache is no more than 12 Steps from the edge of the Prairie Path allowing geobikers easy access to the caches and the ability to keep an eye on their ride. As with most hides along the Prairie Path tree cover and the associated “your coordinates were off” comments are inevitable so if you find it and have a better read than we did, please feel free to post your revised numbers.

Fifty-Nine

Fifty-nine is where the trail steepens
In the downward rush towards car and shower.
Fierce sun is dappled now, the veil deepens,
The chill of shadowed breezes tells the hour;
Yet all the day's sweet joy retains its power.

Now is time to muse upon the evening
Instead of looking to the roots and stones.
No dreams of life more rich, more full of leavening,
Even as one's thoughts take deeper tones.

~ Nicholas Gordon

You are looking for a Peanut Butter Jar. It is big enough for a few small trade items or travel bugs a logsheet and a pencil. Good Luck.
