Geocache Description:

A micro cache hidden near a memorial to a young man in Nichols Preserve.

We discovered this curious preserve not far from where Mac works. It is sandwiched between a nearby housing development and I-684 and contains open fields, pine thickets, stands of maple, marshes and small ponds -- all in a rather modest preserve. The preserve was originally managed by the Nature Conservancy but has since been turned over to the Greenwich Riding Trails Association. The preserve and its trails are clearly used for horseback riding, but the preserve is also open to the public for hiking. We took a liking to this rather quirky preserve and decided to place a series of caches whose variety in placement and form mirror the varied topography of the preserve itself. The trails have no clear labeling or names, but you will likely not find it difficult to follow a loop that will take you near all three caches. We suggest the order: Boulder-dash, Culicidae, Ave Caesar which will take you on a clockwise loop through part of the preserve.

This cache is a micro container hidden near a memorial to a man who passed at an untimely age. To be clear, we chose the name of this cache in respect of the deceased and his loved ones who placed the memorial in such an idyllic location. Please take a few moments to enjoy the peaceful surroundings and honor the intent of the memorial.
