All the stages are near dirt paths, gravel paths, paved
paths, or open grassy areas so no bushwhacking is needed. Each
stage could be rated with a difficulty level of 1 - 2 and a terrain
rating of 1 - 2. The listed ratings of 3 reflect the many stages, 4
mile walk, and time investment needed to reach all the stages. If
you have not found the other caches along 9-Mile creek, you can
find many of them as you pass close to them while completing the
stages of this multi-cache.
The creek meanders and so do many of the paths. Please stick
to the paths instead of bushwhacking.
Suggested Parking: N 44 48.960 W 93 18.444 <-- Off 104th

Look for a small path heading upward just past the 0.9
mile post. After finding "O", this path will take you past GCHFH5
on your way to "R."
O: N 44 ____.______ W 93 ____.______
R: N 44 ____.______ W 93 ____.______
E: N 44 ____.______ W 93 ____.______
Don't be enticed off the paths and cleared areas by the
arrow on your GPSr. Remember that the creek meanders. The best way
from "E" to "A" is past GCNNWY and then up on the bluff trail past
GCR00V, GCQTWF and GCV0W9. An alternate trail to "A" is to follow
the path next to the creek and then climb the stairs at 106th
street.
A: N 44 ____.______ W 93 ____.______
S: N 44 ____.______ W 93 ____.______
Final: N 44 ____.______ W 93 ____.______
Bright Idea: The final is not too far from the starting point,
but this is a large park so it is handy to waypoint your car so
that you can easily find your way back.
