This cache has been archived.

Wis Kid: As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Geocache Description:

Welcome to Farm Junk 2. We planned this to be a good family cache in our favorite Waukesha County Park, Muskego Park.

Muskego Park is located on C.T.H. L, approximately 1/2 mile west of Racine Avenue (C.T.H. Y). This 160-acre site was purchased in 1958 as the County's first regional park.

This cache is located in a Waukesha County Park so a entrance fee or a yearly sticker is REQUIRED. It is not possible to reach the cache from the neighboring subdivision, you must use the park trail. This park is open from sunrise until 10:00 PM. However, the Park Rangers asked that no one go in the trails after dark for your safety.

ABOUT THE CACHE

This cache is located in a hardwoods preservation area. Many trails wind through this area offering a tranquil atmosphere and home to many wildlife. Please, stay on the establish trails, all stages of this multi are placed just a short walk off the trail. The final is placed a short distance in, due to the high muggle factor.

You are seeking a 4 stage multi. Each stage is a different container that will give you the coordinates for the next. Total distance, if you follow the correct trails, could be approximately .8 miles. Parts of this multi may be hard to find in the winter months. So it's not winter friendly!!

In the winter the trails are expertly groomed for cross country sking so HIKING IS NOT ALLOWED on the trails during these times.

PARK FEATURES:

In the summer there is a family camping area, beach for swimming with beach house for changing, bathrooms and a concession stand for hot dogs and ice cream treats. There are trails for hiking and horse back riding so you can easily make a full day of it with your family. Enjoy a picnic lunch in one of the many free picnic table and shelter areas. If you need a place for a celebration or picnic they have three picnic shelters and two picnic pavillions for rent. This is one of our favorite places to camp but there are no hook up for water or electric though.

Good Luck and Thank You for your visit!! The park is closed at 10:00 pm so even if you are camping you need to be at your site. Thank You!!
