Auburn 2016 - Duck Pond Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

WellJointed: I just replaced the inner container last week and the outer container has been broken beyond repair. It didn't even last a week. There is too much druggie and homeless stuff around here so I'm archiving it. It had a very good run during the last 2-1/2 years, thank you Auburn Parks, Peach and Pete for organizing the geotour and all those who found it (and for all the FPs too, thanks!).

Geocache Description:

This cache is part of the Auburn Geocaching Adventure 2016. If you're participating in the Adventure, be sure to record each cache's code word in your series passport to verify your visit.

This pond hosts many varieties of birds and waterfowl, especially ducks.  You may see mallard, pintail, harlequin, canvasback, bufflehead and wood ducks.

A note about the container based on initial logs: it is just about as I found it, crooked screws and all. I just emptied and cleaned it up and put it back in almost the same spot. with new attachments. If any moving parts need serious attention, I will redo it then. Don't push the 'key' all the way in.


2016 is the 125th anniversary of the incorporation of the City of Auburn, Washington. Auburn Parks, Arts and Recreation, auburntourism.com, and the WSGA are hosting the Auburn Geocaching Adventure 2016 - 20 caches placed in Auburn.
