Geocache Description:

The above coordinates are for the parking area. No cache there. The cache find will take you on the P.P. Mock trail system. Your feet may get wet depending upon the season. Be prepared. Use the trails! The cache is very near the edge of the trail-and the one it's on is a loop so you can come upon it in either direction.

A large portion of this country was purchased in 1803 near the time of the Fourth of July. A year later an expedition was begun. Communication with the expedition party and the leaders of the country was done through a code system. Use this secret code to determine the cache location.
