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:

Easy park, easy hike on trail for most of the way. New Cache is located off the trail a bit so it may be weedy in the summer.

This is our first cache, which is especially done for my two little Greenwings a/k/a kids involved in Ducks Unlimited and conservation. www.greenwing.org

UPPER HALFWAY CREEK MARSH RESTORATION PROJECT:

Enjoy your visit to the innovative watershed restoration project that was developed and implemented with the involvement of a large team of partner organizations, which are listed on the sign in the parking area. Halfway creek, a tribute to the Upper Mississippi River north of La Crosse, Wisconsin, drains a small watershed where agricultural land use and expanding residential and commercial development have led to flooding and sedimentation problems in lower parts of the watershed. This water shed initiative involves restoration, enhancement, creation and management of more than 150 acres of wetland and grassland to address these problems and ultimately creating habitat for wildlife.

Hope you enjoy! Let me know what animals/ducks you see on your adventure!
