This cache is part of a series of presidential caches.
These caches will come in a variety of sizes, difficulties and terrains. They will be placed all across the area. Hopefully everyone will enjoy finding them. William McKinley was the Twenty-Fifth U.S. president. He was born on January 29, 1843 in Ohio. He died on September 14, 1901, only six months into his second term. He was U.S. president from March 4, 1897 until September 14, 1901. He was affiliated with the Republican party. McKinley was the last Civil War veteran to become U.S. president. The one major event to occur during his presidency was the Spanish-American war. This is one of three consecutive difficult hides in the presidential series. The difficulty rating comes from the fact that this is a well hidden micro in the woods, and the GPS was jumpy. I'm including an alternate set of coordinates in case the first set does not get you anywhere. The terrain is actually pretty flat. The rating comes from the fact that you will have to negotiate some very wet ground. I ran across some areas with about a foot of water. You can skirt around them, but you still walk through several inches. The other issue is the abundance of mosquitoes during the summer months. Be sure to shower in repellent before trying this one.
