Geocache Description:

Another hide in the McHenry Parks series. This one can be found at Miller Riverfront Park.

Parking is available off Miller Road just west of the Fox River.

This is a nice small park where you can get away from it all and take a hike, do some fishing or just watch the current flow down the river. If the gates are closed, park on the side of the road and hike in.  If you come by snowmobile, you will have to walk about 250 feet down the trail past the sign, 'No Motorized Vehicles Allowed'. The terrain is pretty flat and open until you are about 50 feet from the cache. It is placed in a winter friendly location, please try to conceal it when you replace it.

Park closes at dusk. Amenities include:

Cache is a 30cal ammo box loaded with goodies.  Original contents include a logbook and pencil, 16ft tape measure, lighted carabiner, 3 color highlighter, package of hair scrunchies, a hair clip, compass carabiner, American Flag pin, carpenters pencil, plain carabiner, UL pen, a TB, and an empty small geocache container for a finder to place their own cache.

The McHenry Parks & Recreation Department has 35 parks with a total of more than 633 acres.

Enjoy your visit and happy caching!

Permission to place caches in City of McHenry parks was given to me by the Parks and Recreation Director.
