This cache is hidden in Lake Fairfax Park, a FCPA Park with a
wealth of attractions, as well as peaceful green spaces. It
complies fully with the geocaching guidelines released by the FCPA.
Begin your hike from the parking area (waypoint provided), and
follow the gravel road/path to to the NE, where you’ll find a
well used hardpack trail, and pass an informational sign. The cache
name makes sense now, eh? It’s an easy hike suitable for kids
of all ages. Round trip distance depends on your parking spot, but
should be under 0.2 miles. The cache container is just 6 feet off
the trail, and is hidden in a very traditional manner. The location
sees lots of foot, and bicycle traffic, so please exercise
“Muggle Awareness” when retrieving the container, and
cover it well when you replace it.
Take a few minutes to read the informational sign…consider
it a teachable moment with Mother Nature.
Last, but not least: No thorns, no ticks, no poison ivy, but
maybe a Blue-tailed Skink.
Fairfax County Parks are open daily, dawn to dusk, please do
NOT hunt this cache at night or any other time the park is
closed.

| NOTICE:
Please be respectful of the posted park hours. If you enter the
park after hours you are trespassing. If you are stopped you can be
ticketed or arrested and will put the future of geocaching in the
parks in jeopardy. |
