P2 EXTREME!rickc309rickc309Traditional CacheMicro55United StatesIllinoisThis is a very EXTREME cache, look at it, then figure out a safe way of retrieving and signing the log. If you can not replace the container as you found it please don't attempt this cache and just walk away. This cache was not placed with the general cacher in mind. But rather for a select few risk takers that enjoy the in-depth thought and adrenalin that goes into being able to log a cache such as these. Enjoy but be safe.You are looking for a very visible container. The container holds only a log sheet so BYOP.2010-08-19T19:00:00ZWrite notekorey99Walking by the site today, we did not see the container where we last saw it. It might be worth checking out...2010-08-09T19:00:00ZFound itkorey99On our 2nd team visit, with a couple of prior scouting runs, we got this one. It was mostly a matter of getting the equipment right. This was the most fun I've had on a cache in quite some time!2010-08-05T19:00:00ZDidn't find itkorey99(1:35:34 PM/dnfwgb) Came prepared today, but prepared to retrieve something that wasn't actually the cache...

A View From the PotterytylerebrandontylerebrandonTraditional CacheMicro1.52.5United StatesIllinoisWhat looks like just another warehouse from the outside actually houses around 20 of Peoria's active artists. I enjoy looking out at the river while I'm not throwing pots on the wheel - now I'm hoping to see some fellow geocachers when I peer out my 4th story window.
Be careful not to disturb the groundhog family. This is my first hide. Enjoy!You should only have to cross the tracks once - entering the parking lot. You will get near them so be careful. Once the river drops other access points will open up. Friday and Saturday evenings can get pretty busy so the may not be the best times to go for this. Be careful an have fun!Film canister.2010-11-09T20:00:00ZFound itkorey99(11:57:11 AM/fwgb) Found after a bit of searching. Got a little sidetracked by a different type of "view" near ground zero.

chance!</h2>
<center><img src="http://www.peoriagermans.com/Images/name.jpg"
alt="The screen!"></center>
<br>Here are the cache rules-
<p>1-You must email me at least 1 week ahead of time to attempt
this cache, this will give me time to put "Your name in
lights!"</p>
<p>2-After a few days, I will send you a confirmation of when your
name will be displayed. Initially, these will only be on TUESDAY
nights. Your name will ONLY be avaible for 15 mins on a time when
designated. (ie 8:00-8:15)</p>
<p>Observations- You can seek the cache without seeing your name,
but what's the point? Isn't it much more fun to see your
Geoacaching handle on a 10 foot jumbotron screen? And PLEASE take a
photo if you like and UPLOAD it!</p>
<p>Special screens can be requested for 100th cache, 1000th cache,
etc.</p>

There maybe many muggles at different times of the day so try and blend in.

Still a favorite of mine!2010-12-11T20:00:00ZFound itkorey99(8:20:05 AM/fwgb) Found with DSVMusic. Hoping to meet up with Rafael. My first guess on how to approach this one turned out to be correct. Got the privilege of talking to the cache owner afterwards. It's interesting to note how hard distance can be to judge. Kinda like how 15 seconds isn't very long, unless you're talking about 15 seconds of being on fire. I definitely had a much easier time than DSVMusic! TFTC! This is definitely going on my list of favorites!

You can drive right up to it if you enter the deck on Adams Street, although there is a deck fee for that. Evenings and weekends are usually free if there is nothing going on downtown.
Or, you can park on the street at a parking meter and take the elevators up, enter either at 110 SW Jefferson or on Adams Street next to the Adams Street Cafe.
If you drive to the cache, please be warned, this deck eats cars, lots of tight 180 degree turns, so take it slowly and make the turns wide.
Small container containing log and room for small items or coins. Bring your own pen.

Find it to get the coordinates for the second step. Enjoy the view, but don't fall.
To get to the final cache site, find the last number of the year that N.J. ratified the Bill of Rights (Not the year N.J. was ratified as a state - This number would put you in the river). Plug that value into these coordinates:

MutherAndSun and I were caching in the Peoria area the other day. I
hid a cache somewhere downtown. Then we proceeded to run a stop
sign and get pulled over. He let us go with just a warning but
while talking to us the officer was playing with my GPSr. When he
gave it back I notice something was wrong with the coordinates of
my new cache. I remember the degrees of the North were 40 and of
the West were 89 but thats all I recall.<br />
<br />
Here's what the minutes said:<br />
<br />
<center>N minutes 51.204 and W minutes 43.3631</center>
<br />
<br />
Can you find the correct conversion back to find my cache. I can
tell you that you MUST treat the decimal like a decimal and use the
proper method of converting decimals. After conversion you will
extra digits, just round off. Check sum for ALL digits of the North
including the degrees is 23. Check sum for all the West digits
including the degrees is 41. .<br />

<p>The listed coordinates will take you to a good viewing area of
the city of Peoria and the Illinois river. You will be standing on
one of the larger moraines found in central Illinois. This was all
created by the last glacial periond thousands of years ago. I used
to ride my road bike up to this very spot years ago when I was a
teenager.</p>
<p>The third and latest invasion of ice into this area of Peoria,
Illinois occurred in very recent times. Only some 25,000 years have
elapsed since the latest ice sheet retreated from this part of the
state of Illinois. The Wisconsin ice sheet moved into Illinois from
the northeast and moved southward and westward to a position along
a line from Paris through Charleston, Shelbyville, Decatur and
Peoria. The glacial drift deposited at this position of the ice
front formed a series of ridges known as a terminal moraine and is
called the Shelbyville moraine. This deep deposit, built to an
elevation of 700 to 750 feet in this vicinity, accumulated as the
glacial ice melted and the material carried in and on the ice was
dropped. It was in this region that rate of melting equaled the
rate of movement of this latest ice sheet and as this continuous
flow of ice from the north was checked by melting, tremendous
quantities of debris were brought into the region and
deposited.</p>
<p>The Shelbyville moraine immediately to the south of Charleston
is composed of a complex of three ridges extending in a general
east-west direction interlaced by several small ridges trending
north-south between the major formations. The complexity of the
morainal deposit would indicate a series of minor retreats and
advances during the thousands of years the ice front was present in
this area. After the extended period of nearly stationary location
an increase in temperature or a decrease in ice supply, or both,
caused the ice front to retreat. The retreat was rather rapid to a
position approximately 10 miles north of Charleston.Following this
short period, in which the recessional Cerro Gordo moraine was
formed, further climatic change produced a retreat to a position
near the present location of Champaign.</p>
<p>These moraines are often irregular in shape and can be quite
wide. A part of the Shelbyville Moraine is located along the
Illinois River in the city of Peoria. This particular moraine is
one of the four largest in Illinois.</p>

target="_blank"><img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b290/cavscout0711/glacial.jpg"
border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></center>
<p>Moraine refers to any glacially formed accumulation of
unconsolidated glacial debris (soil and rock) which can occur in
currently glaciated and formerly glaciated regions, such as those
areas acted upon by a past ice age. This debris may have been
plucked off the valley floor as a glacier advanced or fallen off
the valley walls as a result of frost wedging. Moraines may be
composed of silt like glacial flour to large boulders. The debris
is typically angular. Moraines may be on the glacier’s surface or
deposited as piles or sheets of debris where the glacier has
melted. Moraines may also occur when glacier or iceberg transported
rocks fall into the sea as the ice melts.</p>
<p>End moraines or terminal moraines are ridges of unconsolidated
debris deposited at the snout or end of the glacier. They usually
reflect the shape of the glacier's terminus. Glaciers act much like
a conveyor belt carrying debris from the top of the glacier to the
bottom where it deposits it in end moraines. End moraine size and
shape is determined by whether the glacier is advancing, receding
or at equilibrium. The longer the terminus of the glacier stays in
one place the more accumulation there will be. There are two types
of end moraines, terminal and recession moraines. Terminal moraines
mark the maximum advance of the glacier. Recessional moraines are
small ridges left as a glacier pauses during its retreat. After a
glacier retreats the end moraine may be destroyed by postglacial
erosion.</p>
<p>To get credit for this EC, post a photo of you (I do not accept
pictures of just a hand) at the posted coordinates and with Peoria

Exceptions will be considered if you contact me first (I realize
sometimes we forget our cameras or the batteries die). Logs with no

available to me by using google search to get information for this

Welcome to the RockJorandajorandaEarthcacheNot chosenDogs allowedRecommended for kidsTakes less than an hourAvailable during winter11.5United StatesIllinoisWelcome to the rock. Ever wonder how these boulders have got here in the middle of no where? Well read on and find out.Here and there in Illinois are boulders lying alone or with companions in the corner of a field or someone's yard, on a courthouse lawn or a schoolyard. Many of them -- colorful and glittering granites, banded gneisses, and other intricately veined and streaked igneous and metamorphic rocks -- seem out of place in the stoneless, grassy knolls and prairies of our state. Their "erratic" occurrence is the reason for their interesting name. These exotic rocks came from Canada and the states north. The continental glaciers of the Great Ice Age scoured and scraped the land surface as they advanced, pushing up chunks of bedrock and grinding them against each other or along the ground surface as the rock-laden ice sheets pushed southward. Sometimes you can tell where the erratic originally came from by determining the kind of rock it is. A large boulder of granite, gneiss, or other igneous or metamorphic rock may have come from Canada.
To log this earthcache you must email me the height and the width of the rock. Post a picture of you and your GPS with the rock on the cache page."X" marks the spot.GC12EWECreek Cache by Fuzzy B (3.5/1.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=af5aaa07-20db-4513-815b-5b40ffa01fa8Creek Cache by Fuzzy BGeocacheGeocache|Unknown Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0CreekCac2011-11-11GC12EWEfalse0

The Simple CacheJeepsterJeepsterTraditional CacheMicro1.52United StatesIllinoisIn trying to show the softer, gentler side of my cache hiding personality, I decided to take the ultimate challenge. Hiding a cache without allowing the dark side to take over.
I've hunted with the "girls" from Gazza&Girls … and both "e" and "e" from EEEE4. So, keeping them in mind, I've hidden a cache that I think they will enjoy. I hope you will too. Wild life is plentiful in this area … deer, beaver, ducks, geese and fish have been spotted.
The cache container is very small, so you'll have to bring your own pen or pencil. Please don't remove the container from where it is lodged … just remove the wee little cap to get at the log sheet and everything will be fine.
Again, I want to thank the Park District Director for his enthusiastic support of our geocaching activities.GC1N01YSpringdale Cemetery ~ Illinois Spirit Quest #25 by Joranda (1.5/1.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=a72550a9-f4d9-4492-a3b7-ce37b39e244cSpringdale Cemetery ~ Illinois Spirit Quest #25 by JorandaGeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0Spring252011-11-11GC1N01Yfalse0

The most attractive site in all of Peoria lay in the valley beyond Birkets Hollow and in the beautiful wooded hills above. Much of the land was owned by William A. Hall, Thomas Baldwin, and Hervey Lightner. <p>In order to become operational as a cemetery, the large size of Springdale required the owners to procure a charter from the Illinois State Legislature. To accomplish that Peoria lawyer Alexander McCoy was hired and on February 14, 1855, he succeeded in getting the Charter passed. Springdale Cemetery was officially in business. <p>Little did they know that Springdale would grow to be one of the State's largest cemeteries. Springdale is a final resting place to all nationalities: English, German, African, French, Irish, Spanish, Vietnamese, Korean, Italian, Greek, Russian, Polish, Scandinavian and many more. <p>Springdale is also the resting place for some Peoria legends including: Lydia Bradley, Captain Moss, Governor Ford, Senator Bloom, John Gwynn, Romeo Garrett, Captain Detweiller, and many more. <p>Also among all of these lie the thousands of people who built our fine community and surrounding areas, each one of them with special stories. Springdale is also the final resting place for several name sakes of our city streets and landmarks. <p>More than a century has gone since the cemetery became a reality. Today within its confines over 78,000 citizens lie in peace along the 230 acres of hills and valleys and 6.5 miles of roads. Our first recorded burial was April, 1857. Some architectural highlights are: a beautifully restored public mausoleum, 9 statues, 7 tree monuments, a Gatehouse, and 15 private mausoleums throughout the grounds. The public mausoleum was built in 1929 with additions added in 1965 and in 1973. On Wednesday, April 15, 1998 the city's Historic Preservation Commission unanimously voted landmark status to the Gatehouse. <p> Enjoy your visit here while you are hunting the cache. Remember to respect the area and there is no cache hunting from dusk to dawn. If you do, you may be the one being hunted. <br>GC2Z9EPBehind the Advertisement #2 by Coalburner (2/1.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=bc79bda7-fa78-45c0-bbd1-0ba8da5171ccBehind the Advertisement #2 by CoalburnerGeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0BehindT22011-11-11GC2Z9EPfalse0

This is my first go at a puzzle cache. I'll be the first to tell you that I have a hard time at most Puzzle caches. I thought I'd give it at try with some basic things that I do at work being a mason (Bricklayer). I will give you basic questions to figure out to find the missing numbers to the coordinates. A- How many full courses of block are laid at 48 inches? B- How many block are in 80 inches long? C- How many modular courses of brick are in 24 inches D- How many standard size brick are in a square foot? N40 38.A7B W089 36.5CD are the coordinates that you are trying to figure out.

"Cohomo" The Cole Hollow MonsterjorandajorandaTraditional CacheNot chosenDogs allowedParking availablePublic restrooms nearby14United StatesIllinoisThis cache is put out in the memory of the Cole Hollow Monster "Cohomo". So when you're out there looking for the cache, keep your ears open, he may be coming up behind you!In May 1972, there were new reports coming in from the Pekin and Peoria areas. In late May, a young man named Randy Emmert, and some friends, reported a large, hairy creature near Cole Hollow Road. This monster was 8-10 feet tall and whitish in color. The witnesses stated that it made a loud, screeching sound and they suspected that it was living in a hole beneath an abandoned house. It also left very unusual tracks, having only three toes on each foot. Soon, others were reporting the same monster and it became known as "Cohomo", short for the "Cole Hollow Road Monster".
The sightings continued and they couldn't be written off to local "panic" either. One witness, from Eureka, knew nothing about the creature, yet happened to be in Fondulac Park, in East Peoria, for a birthday party. He reported the creature and strangely, a set of strange lights that seemed to descend vertically and land behind some trees. Were the two sightings connected?
Cohomo was seen again on July 27 as East Peoria Police reported that he was spotted by "two reliable citizens" swimming in the Illinois River. They got close enough to him to know that he smelled awful and looked like a "cross between an ape and a caveman". After that, he was gone.Watch out, he may be watching you!GC1XEP6Cavebear7's 2000th by Bri13 (3.5/4)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=5119abd2-4001-452a-8204-88357e51cdb2Cavebear7's 2000th by Bri13GeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0Caveb0002011-11-11GC1XEP6false0

In Search Of Sasquatch: Strange NoisesTheSamsquantchTheSamsquantchMulti-cacheSmall55United StatesIllinoisLast night I was at the tavern talking to a man from the trailor park down the street. He had some crazy stories, I just had to share them with you.
"So the other night I was watchin nascar with the kin folk when I heard some noise over the surround sound out the back of the trailor. So i knew whatever it was it had to be big. I went to take a look and, i heard some more russelin on top of the hill to the left, or was it the right? None the less I followed him all about that hillside, and finally caught a glimpse of him close to the ol' fishin hole. Now I know what I saw, and it wasn't no human. I'm agonna catch that thing, and prove to ya'll that I ain't a crazy. If you's still dont believe me then you's can go take a looksie yourself."
The man then gave me a paper with the posted coords on it. This cache is not for everyone. It will be difficult, and could put you in dangerous situations. If it is out of your comfort zone do not proceed.

One Degree of Separation: LEDZ and Orange BoyLEDZ and Orange BoyLEDZ and Orange BoyTraditional CacheMicroRecommended for kidsTakes less than an hourScenic viewNeeds maintenance1.51.5United StatesIllinois<p>This cache was hidden as part of the One Degree of Separation
Geocaching Project. This is a seed that came from One Degree of
Separation: Timekeeper (GCX6AZ) cache near Raleigh, NC</p><p>This project was launched to unite the entire geocaching
continuum together at one point using the "Small World Theory" as
it pertains to geocaching.</p>
<p>If even half of the nearly 13,000 caches originally released on
5/26/2006 get placed as a geocache, no geocacher in the entire
world (with even 1 find) should be able to go much beyond 3 degrees
of separation from every other geocacher in the world, but the REAL
object of this project is to bring that number down to 1 degree for
as many geocachers as possible.</p>
<p>One Degree of Separation is a project that has been taking shape
and GROWING for nearly 3 years. It's a variation of the "Small
World" concept that was proposed in the early 20th century. Many
people are familiar with the "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" game, but
few know just how far back the idea goes.</p>
<p>For more information on this project and the Small World Theory

The cache name will become clear once you're at the cache site.Located roughly in central eastern Peoria on Peoria Park Dist. grounds (permission was granted for this cache), this is a micro cache with only a log slip inside---bring pen/pencil. Many of you probably have been to these grounds at some time in your life to watch a high school sporting event. It's a great place to hit a baseball to the kids or fly a kite with few people around during the week. Please cover it back up with a bit of wood.

I ask that you only leave TBs, geocaching related items, or geocoins in the cache. Swap out TBs to move them onto their goals. Please only take one TB if you have none to trade. The cache will be watched by local geocacher Joranda while I am in Alaska.

I just thought it was time for me to hide one instead of waiting for everyone else to do the work.
Okay, the real information is this: The cache is a magnetic key holder hidden somewhe in Endres Park with permission of the Peoria Park District. No fancy tricks, no clever riddles, nothing out of the ordinary is needed to find this cache is needed.
It will help to be in tune with your GPSr on the metaphysical level, but that is nothing that isn’t standard to experienced cachers.

Bring: Plenty of drinking water,bug spray and your sense of adventure.This is a two stage multi.
You will need special equipment to retrieve the cache. I have provided some of the required gear at stage one. Please return it before you leave the park.

Marquette Heights Erratic BoulderCav Scout, Platinum Earthcache MasterCav ScoutEarthcacheNot chosen1.51.5United StatesIllinoisAn large erractic glacier boulder on the old farm yard of Marquette Heights.Where did erratics come from? These exotic rocks came from Canada and the states north of us. The continental glaciers of the Great Ice Age scoured and scraped the land surface as they advanced, pushing up chunks of bedrock and grinding them against each other or along the ground surface as the rock-laden ice sheets pushed southward. Sometimes you can tell where the erratic originally came from by determining the kind of rock it is. A large boulder of granite, gneiss, or other igneous or metamorphic rock may have come from Canada. Some erratics containing flecks of copper were probably transported here from the "Copper Range" of the upper peninsula of Michigan. Large pieces of copper have been found in glacial deposits of central and northern Illinois. Light gray to white quartzite boulders with beautiful, rounded pebbles of red jasper came from Ontario, Canada. Purplish pieces of quartzite, some of them banded, probably originated in Wisconsin. Most interesting are the few large boulders of Canadian tillite. Glacial till is an unsorted and unlayered mixture of clay, sand, gravel, and boulders that vary widely in size and shape. Tillite is glacial till that was deposited by a glacier many millions of years older than the ones that invaded our state during the Great Ice Age. This glacial till has been around so long that it has hardened into a gray to greenish gray rock containing a mixture of grains of different sizes and scattered pebbles of various types and sizes. Glaciers spread southward into the Midwest from two centers of ice
accumulation in western and eastern Canada.
Most boulders were probably dropped directly from the melting front of the glacier. Others may have been rafted to their present resting places by icebergs in ancient lakes or on floodwaters of some long-vanished stream as it poured from a glacier. Still others, buried in the glacial deposits, could have worked their way up to the land surface as the surrounding loose soil repeatedly froze and thawed. When the freezing ground expands, pieces of rock tend to be pushed upward, where they are more easily reached by the farmer's plow and also more likely to be exposed by erosion.
Erratics may be of notable size and beauty. Some are used as monuments in courthouse squares and parks, or along highways. Many are marked with metal plaques to indicate an interesting historical spot or event.
Here and there in Illinois are boulders lying alone or with companions in the corner of a field or someone's yard, on a courthouse lawn or a schoolyard. Many of them—colorful and glittering granites, banded gneisses, and other intricately veined and streaked igneous and metamorphic rocks—seem out of place in the stoneless, grassy knolls and prairies of our state. Their "erratic" occurrence is the reason for their interesting name.
To get credit for the find please answers the following Questions.
1. How large is the erratic?
2. What kind of rock is the erractic?
Take a picture with GPS in hand and the erratic in background to get credit for the find. Logs without photos will be delted without notice.The very large boulder alongthe side walk is the erratic you are looking for.GCRMK1Marquette Heights Park cache by joranda (2/2)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=34bd6c9b-1a57-499e-b63f-7b20184135f5Marquette Heights Park cache by jorandaGeocacheGeocache|Multi-cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0MarquetH2011-11-11GCRMK1false0

<p>Prepare your brain for some serious crypto. Diffie-Hellman
crypto is used in the PGP (Pretty Good Protection) cryptosystem, one of
the best of many cryptosystems used all over the
Web these days for web security. It can also be performed on
chunks
of text using a free Windows(or Mac)-based tool. The technique
and
the use of the tool is described at: <br>
<br>
<a href="http://security.teleactivities.net/security/cryptography/history.htm">http://security.teleactivities.net/security/cryptography/history.htm</a>
<br>
<br>
Finding the (Next-->) button at the bottom of the page so you can
read the whole multi-page exercise is part of the challenge.<br>
</p>
<p>As you read the history, you will learn that the Diffie-Hellman
technique was independently invented by three people. Two of
these, Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman, wound up having the
technique named after them. Who was the third? </p>
<p>The tool is available (some restrictions apply) on the MIT website
at:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://web.mit.edu/network/pgp.html">http://web.mit.edu/network/pgp.html</a>
<br>
<br>
It is not necessary to install the Network Security tool (PGPnet) or
the Eudora or Outlook plugins, you can uncheck these options as it
installs. All you need are PGPkeys and PGPtray. I used the
tool just as described in the first link (except that I chose 1024-bit
key) and set up a key pair using the name "Rocket Scientist".
Below* is a link to the Private
Key and Public Key (both in the same file, can be imported into the
tool
using PGPKeys...Keys...Import) generated with it. It's a text
file,
feel free to look at it, but don't edit it or it won't work! <br>
<br>
The challenge is to figure out what the message is given all this
information. This includes reading the history/exercise,
downloading and firing up the tool from MIT, and figuring out how to
use it to decode this. Actually doing the exercises in the
cryptography history link really helps.<br>
<br>
----------------------------------<br>
* The keys to the message are in this file:<br>
<a href="http://www.geocities.com/Geo_Rocket_Sci/RocketScientist.txt">
http://www.geocities.com/Geo_Rocket_Sci/RocketScientist.txt</a> <br>
Use the third inventor's name as the passphrase.<br>

Windows XP users can download PGP 8.0 from:<br>
<a href="http://www.pgp.com/products/freeware.html">
http://www.pgp.com/products/freeware.html</a> <br>
When installing, you can uncheck all components boxes, all you need is the bare bones stuff. Click "Later" when it asks about registration, and you will get the freeware version, which is all you need. Once installed, it works similarly to the older version from MIT.<br>

Finally, here's the coded message:<br>

The Erratic HulkCav Scout, Platinum Earthcache MasterCav ScoutEarthcacheNot chosen1.51.5United StatesIllinoisHere is a fine example of one of the larger erratics in the Pekin area left behind from the glacial period. I used to play on this erratic when I was a little kid.Glaciers form during climatic episodes when more snow accumulates during the winter than melts away during the summer; over time the snow thickens and under the pressure of its own weight is compressed into ice and begins to flow outward. During warm intervals, glacier ice melts and the glaciers recede (melt back). During cold intervals, more snow accumulates than melts and the glaciers advance. Rocks and soil frozen in the base of the glacier are dragged along. These materials can act like sandpaper to smooth the landscape over which the glacier passes. This abrasion can smooth the face of rocks and round out hills. It can also gouge out valleys. On some exposed rock surfaces you can find evidence of this glacial scouring in the form of glacial striations (parallel lines carved into the rock).
Like rivers, glaciers tend to follow the path of least resistance. The glaciers that flowed into the northern United States from Canada during the Ice Age followed the courses of former river valleys that were eroded into the least resistant rocks. The glaciers gouged out rock from the base and sides of these valleys creating the troughs occupied today by the Great Lakes.
When glaciers melt, they leave behind whatever they were carrying. This may consist of a mixture of rock debris and old soils, called till, material that was ground-up and deposited from the base of the glacier. Some of the most striking reminders that the landscape was once covered by glaciers are boulders and cobbles, called erratics, that dot the landscape. Unlike the rock you find in local quarries, these are exotic rocks. In Illinois, erratics are often granitic rocks like those you would find today hundreds of miles away in Canada.
This particular erratic is probably lying in the same spot when the glaciers melted due to its large size. Its made of granite.
To get credit for cache answer the following questions.
1. How long, wide, and tall is the rock.
2. How was the erractic brought here?
Take a picture with the erratic in back ground to get credit for find. Logs with incorrect answers or no photo at EC site will be deleted without notice.When you see the largest boulder in the area, you are in the right spot.GC1VAERAround the bend by Baillie Hunters (1.5/2)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=e40fe678-1486-424f-9f56-fbcdbc17fdd0Around the bend by Baillie HuntersGeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0AroundTh2011-11-11GC1VAERfalse0

<p><b>Poplar Lane Park</b> is located along the Illinois River in
Peoria Heights.</p>
<p>If you have not heard of it before, maybe it is because, a few
years ago, the north part held a trailer park and a beach club bar.
The area was cleared due to flooding. The South part remains a
wetland when the river runs over its banks.</p>
<p>More recently, the park has acquired a new playground and other
facilities. While you are there, enjoy the view of the river.</p>
<p>You are looking for a small plastic container holding small
trading items.</p>
<p>River note: During the Spring, the river floods parts of the
park. While the cache is in a safe area, use appropriate caution if
the river is above flood stage.</p>

<b>Bartonville State Hospital</b><br>
Construction on the Bartonville State Hospital began in 1885, and the
main structure—an enormous building most closely resembling a medieval
castle—was completed in 1887. The building was never used, apparently
due to the structural damage caused when the abandoned mine shafts it
was built over collapsed. The psychiatric hospital was rebuilt in 1902
under the direction of Dr.
George Zeller and implemented a cottage system of 33 buildings,
including
patient and caretaker housing, a store, a power station, several
graveyards, and a communal
utility building. Zeller was considered a pioneer of a kinder
generation
of mental health care, using no window bars or other restraints in his
design.
Dr Zeller retired in 1935, but the hospital remained in
operation
until 1972.<br>
<br>
Before you visit the site, I encourage you to read more about the
facility at the following link:<br>
<a href="http://www.prairieghosts.com/barton.html">http://www.prairieghosts.com/barton.html</a><br>
<br>
<span>Caution</span>: The link
above contains a somewhat sensationalized
version of the story of this facility and of "Old Book." I
encourage you to look beyond the ghost story for a compassionate man
who loved
his fellow patients and those who cared for him. From the turnout
at his funeral, it is apparent that Dr. Zeller, the staff, and the
other patients felt the same. From what I've read, and what I
remember from visiting the hospital several times in the 60's, I'm
convinced that this hospital, as well as the Zeller Mental Helth
Facility which replaced it, occupied a very useful place in the
community and provided the very best, state of the art, care for their
patients.<p>
As you approach the coordinates above, be sure to drive
around and view the main structure (note that walking close to it is
prohibited, as is entering it), the power plant (don't even think of
entering it!) which was built some time after the main building, and
some of the other buildings which have been converted to a commercial
park. You will be able to park on the street very near the
coordinates.<p>

<b>George A. Zeller Mental Health Center</b><br>
When the Bartonville facility closed, treatment was moved to a
brand-new facility in Peoria named after Dr. Zeller. Opened in
1967 under Superintendant
Dr. James Ward on a beautiful, 69.3 acre site on North University, this
facility
expanded in 1985 to accommodate a capacity of 300+ patients. The
state
of the art facility featured an auditorium, bake shop, gymnasium,
fitness
trails, museum, workshop, accommodations for both long and short term
treatment, and even a mini-golf course. They pioneered Video
Therapy in the early
days of affordable video recording, which proved remarkably effective
with
many patients. Sadly, however, the facility was officially closed
by the State at the end of August 2002, after the State legislature
voted not to continue funding. <br>
<br>
The site still serves as the home for the Mental Health Association of
Illinois Valley, Inc. Founded in 1953, this nonprofit
organization
provides the area with crisis intervention, senior, and mental health
professional
services. To learn more, use the following link:<br>

<br>
<br>
After the announcement that Zeller would close, Representative David
Leitch asked Illinois Central College leaders if the facility would
help with the expansion of workforce and technical programs and their
desire to work more closely with the Peoria area high schools in
delivering vocational classes. The facility, now called ICC North,
started classes in the Fall, 2003.<br>

Double erratic land markerCav Scout, Platinum Earthcache MasterCav ScoutEarthcacheNot chosen1.51.5United StatesIllinoisHere is fine example of a farmer using glacier (erratic) boulders to mark a driveway entrance. The house is long gone but the boulders are still here. The erratics at this location can be viewed from the parking spot next to them.These exotic rocks came from Canada and the states north of us. The continental glaciers of the Great Ice Age scoured and scraped the land surface as they advanced, pushing up chunks of bedrock and grinding them against each other or along the ground surface as the rock-laden ice sheets pushed southward. Sometimes you can tell where the erratic originally came from by determining the kind of rock it is. A large boulder of granite, gneiss, or other igneous or metamorphic rock may have come from Canada. Some erratics containing flecks of copper were probably transported here from the "Copper Range" of the upper peninsula of Michigan. Large pieces of copper have been found in glacial deposits of central and northern Illinois. Light gray to white quartzite boulders with beautiful, rounded pebbles of red jasper came from Ontario, Canada. Purplish pieces of quartzite, some of them banded, probably originated in Wisconsin. Most interesting are the few large boulders of Canadian tillite. Glacial till is an unsorted and unlayered mixture of clay, sand, gravel, and boulders that vary widely in size and shape. Tillite is glacial till that was deposited by a glacier many millions of years older than the ones that invaded our state during the Great Ice Age. This glacial till has been around so long that it has hardened into a gray to greenish gray rock containing a mixture of grains of different sizes and scattered pebbles of various types and sizes.
I used to wonder where all the farmers found these boulders (erratics). Little did I know that they was brought here by ancient glaciers thousands of years ago. You can find these erratic rocks in the size of a small rock to the size of a barn. This is proof of how powerful the ancient glaciers where. Now the erratic boulders just lay where the glaciers left them.
1. What type of rock is the boulders?
2. Estimate how much the boulders weigh.
To get credit for the EC post a picture of yourself (face included) with GPS in hand and the rocks in the back ground.
Logs with no photo of the actual geocacher logging the find or failure to answer questions will result in a log deletion. Exceptions will be considered if you contact me first (I realize sometimes we forget our cameras or the batteries die). Logs with no photos will be deleted without notice. I have used sources available to me by using google search to get information for this earth cache. I am by no means a geologist. I use books, internet, and asking questions about geology just like 99.9 percent of the geocachers who create these great Earth Caches. I enjoy Earth Caches and want people to get out and see what I see everytime I go and explore this great place we live in.Keep an eye out for erratics. You may find some of these glacial strangers in your neighborhood.GC1H5T2Pirates Getaway (NIGHT CACHE) by rickc309 (3/3)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=848f1ce4-dbea-4ca0-9277-957778791dbdPirates Getaway (NIGHT CACHE) by rickc309GeocacheGeocache|Unknown Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0PiratesG2011-11-11GC1H5T2false0

Mostly fallen trees to walk over and around.This is a Night Cache, a good powerful flashlight is a great help here. At the starting point you will get the instructions needed to start your journey and to find the hidden treasure.
Make sure you mark your parking location, take a backup flashlight, and backup batteries for your GPS. Cell phone, bug spray for now anyway, you know the drill..
This is meant to be a fun cache, please be careful with the items used in this cache. No need to pick up or move the items, look for the lock and lock containers at the start and finish. Have fun... but please be very careful and aware of your surroundings.
I grew up in that area, I have seen and heard many weird things that were never explained in those woods. In the mid 1960's Hobo's use to camp very close to the starting point of this cache, in the 1970's Big Foot was spotted there as well as Cole Hollow, also in the early 1970's a young boy named Richard Griner came up missing and has never been found to this date, it was rumored that he met with foul play from a Hobo and his remains are somewhere is those woods.
As I was placing this cache I heard things that freaked me out, foot steps breaking trees branches and sounds that were muffled or almost moans. I made jokes to my helper while we were laying out this night cache about the Blaire Witch Project, the sounds I heard in those woods reminded me of that video tape, when the hair on my arms started to stand up I realized it was no joking matter.

Public parking at 40° 45.423 min and -89° 34.485 min. Dawn to Dusk.Comprised of over 500 acres of dedicated Illinois State Nature Preserve, Forest Park Nature Center contains seven miles of hiking trails, a natural history museum, spacious viewing room for bird watchers and the Trailhead Nature Store.
Forest Park Nature Preserve was a Girl Scout camp up into the late sixties - Camp Whippoorwill. Some evidence of the camp still exists. The buildings to the east were a county sanitarium. Forest Park is now an Illinois State Nature Preserve. To be an Illinois State Nature Preserve, the location’s ecosystem has to be unique and fragile. Less than one tenth of 1% of Illinois remains as settlers first found it. This place is a tiny sample of it.
This cache is here on a probationary basis. It will be promptly removed at any time its impact becomes a problem.
* Stay on the trails – there is absolutely no reason to leave them to reach this cache.
* Other than what you exchange with the cache, take nothing – so that others may also enjoy what you saw.
* Leave the cache hounds at home – pet scent on the trail displaces the natives.
The walk to the cache will take you past and to environmental stewardship projects going back over three decades. It takes a generation or two to restore nature’s balanced beauty. Sometimes it can never be restored. You will get a glimpse of what the Illinois bluffs once were and might yet be in this location. When you find the cache, pause a moment in this place of quiet to contemplate this awe-inspiring world we live in.
Container is small: 1.5"x2.5"x4".Listen closely and you will end up between a fence and a hard place.GC1EAWWThis Ones a Real Stretch by Fuzzy B (2/2)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=cd482670-2f50-4a64-846a-935309894338This Ones a Real Stretch by Fuzzy BGeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0OnesARea2011-11-11GC1EAWWfalse0

<p>This cache is about a story told long ago.It's a true story
about a patient from the Illinois state hospital. He was named by
the Illinois state hospital as Manual Bookbinder. Old Bookbinder
can still be heard crying on quiet days in the Summer moonlit
nights. Please pay respect to the graves when visiting this
cemetery. The graves you will see are mostly marked by numbers,
remember that these are the graves of people who was once loved and
cared about by someone a long time ago.</p>

<p>" Of all of the gravediggers, the most unusual man, according to
Dr. Zeller, was a fellow called A. Bookbinder.</p>
<p>The man was completely mute so no one knew his real name.
Apparently, the man had suffered a breakdown while working in a
printing house, possibly in Chicago, and his mental illness had
left him incapable of coherent speech. The officer who had taken
him into custody merely wrote in his report that the man had been
employed as "a bookbinder". A court clerk listed this as the man’s
name and he was sent to the hospital as A. Bookbinder. Dr. Zeller
described the man as being strong and healthy, although completely
uncommunicative.</p>
<p>Soon, the attendants enlisted him to assist in the burial corps.
Strangely, "Old Book" as he began to be called was especially
suited to the work. Ordinarily, when the coffin was being lowered,
the gravediggers would stand back out of the way and wait silently
for the funeral to end. At that point, they would set to filling
the grave. Nearly every single patient at the hospital was a
stranger and unknown to the staff, so the funeral services were
mainly done out of respect, rather than because of personal
attachment to the deceased. Because of this, everyone was a little
surprised when, at his first internment, Old Book proceeded to
remove his cap, wipe his eyes and begin weeping loudly for the
patient who had died. He would do the same thing at each
service.... first his sleeve would be used to wipe away his tears
and then he would walk over and lean against the old elm that stood
in the center of the cemetery and begin sobbing loudly. This tree,
where Book would give vent to his grief, was known as the
"Graveyard Elm". It was a massive old tree which had been standing

<p>Time passed and eventually Old Book too passed away. Word spread
among the employees and as Book was well-liked, and noted for his
peculiarities, everyone decided they would attend his funeral. Dr.
Zeller wrote that more than 100 uniformed nurses attended, along
with the male staff members and several hundred of the patients.
Dr. Zeller officiated the service.</p>
<p>Old Book’s casket was placed on two cross beams above his empty
grave and four men stood by to lower it into the ground at the end
of the service. Dr. Zeller wrote, "Just as the choir finished the
last lines of ‘Rock of Ages’, the men grasped the ropes, stooped
forward, and with a powerful, muscular effort, prepared to lift the
coffin, in order to permit the removal of the crossbeams and allow
it to gently descend into the grave. "At a given signal, they
heaved away the ropes and the next instant, all four lay on their
backs. For the coffin, instead of offering resistance, bounded into
the air like an eggshell, as if it were empty!"</p>
<p>Needless to say, the spectators were a little shocked at this
turn of events and the nurses were to said to have shrieked, half
of them running away and the other half coming closer to the grave
to see what was going on. "In the midst of the commotion," Dr.
Zeller continued, "a wailing voice was heard and every eye turned
toward the Graveyard Elm whence it emanated. Every man and woman
stood transfixed, for there, just as had always been the case,
stood Old Book, weeping and moaning with an earnestness that
outrivaled anything he had ever shown before. After a few moments
of this, Dr. Zeller summoned some men to remove the lid of the
coffin, convinced that Old Book could not be inside of it. The lid
was lifted and as soon as it was, the wailing sound completely
stopped. Inside of the coffin lay the body of Old Book....
unquestionably dead. It was said that every eye looked upon the
still corpse and then over to the Graveyard Elm.</p>
<p>The apparition had vanished. "It was awful, but it was real,"
Dr. Zeller wrote. "I saw it; 100 nurses saw it and 300 spectators
saw it."</p>
<p>A few days later, the Graveyard Elm mysteriously began to wither
and die. In spite of efforts to save it, the tree declined over the
next year until it was completely dead. Later, after the dead limbs
had dropped, workmen tried to remove the rest of the tree, but
stopped working after the first cut of the ax caused the tree to
emanate an "agonized, despairing cry of pain".</p>
<p>After that, Dr. Zeller suggested the tree be burned, however as
soon as the flames started around the tree’s base, the workers
quickly put them out. They later told Zeller that they heard a
sobbing and crying sound coming from it.</p>

Park at approximately N 40° 45.425’ W -89° 34.474’ Although there may be closer places to start from, you would have to trespass to use them or reach the cache.Comprised of over 500 acres of dedicated Illinois State Nature Preserve, Forest Park Nature Center Preserve contains seven miles of hiking trails, from rigorous uphill courses to flatter, less strenuous paths. The unique A-frame that is the Nature Center also features a natural history museum, bird watching room and the Trailhead Nature Store. The trails are open year-round, dawn to dusk.
Forest Park Nature Preserve was a Girl Scout camp up into the late sixties. Some evidence of the camp still exists. From the recommended parking, you will be walking on what was once the road to the camp. The buildings to the east were a county tuberculosis sanitarium and dormitory.
To be an Illinois State Nature Preserve, the location’s ecosystem has to be unique and fragile. Less than one tenth of 1% of Illinois remains as settlers first found it. This place is a tiny sample of it. On the edge of the preserve, this cache is here with permission on a probationary basis. It will be promptly removed at any time its impact becomes a problem. Cache In, Trash Out.
*Stay on the trails – there is absolutely no reason to leave them to reach this cache.
*Other than what you exchange with the cache, take nothing,– so that others may also enjoy what you saw.
*Leave the cache hounds at home – pet scent on the trail displaces the natives.
The container is small, roughly 4.5” diameter x 3” tall. Started with lip balm, smiley face bracelet and pin, Salt Lake Olympic lapel pin, battery case, and mini Pez dispenser.We placed it on a Sunday on the side of a hill.

It is about a half mile hike to the cache. Walking sticks are very helpful during the slippery season.Peek-In Parks Triple Play series is a group of three caches that will introduce you to Pekin Park District’s three outer parks. The first two caches contain coordinates to the third cache. <br><br>
These caches are placed with the permission of the Pekin Park District. Our thanks to the Director of Parks and Superintendent of Parks for their approval, and a special thank you to the Superintendent of Recreation for the time and effort she put into making this happen. If you run across the Chief Ranger be sure to talk with him. We’ve been told that he is very proud of these outer parks and is happy to see them utilized. You can find a map of this park <a href="http://www.pekin.net/pekinparkdistrict/policerangerdivision/dirksen.gif">here</a>. For more information about Pekin Park District go to <a href="http://www.pekin.net/pekinparkdistrict/">this website</a>.<br><br>
The cache container is a 7.62 mm ammo can (10 x 8 x 4). When placed it contained a logbook & pencil, flashlight, doll set, sewing kit, compass set, small diagonal pliers, luggage lock, mini-deck of cards, tissues, patriotic pen, small toy cars, and glow-in-the-dark superballs. <br><br>
There is also a key locker attached to the inside of the lid containing one half of the coordinates that you will need to find <A HREF="http://www.geocaching.com/admin/review.aspx?ID=106890">Peek-In Parks Triple Play #3</a> cache.<br><br>
This cache is located roughly 20 feet off the trail. Stay on the trails. There is absolutely no reason to leave them until the last 20 feet or so. This is the first of three pilot caches that the Pekin Park District has allowed us to place. If all goes well they will consider allowing more caches to be placed in their 2,500 acres of parkland. As always, Cache In, Trash Out!<br><br>

<hr>
<p>Abydos was the first planet visited by Stargate Command after
Daniel Jackson unlocked the secrets of the Stargate discovered in
Egypt. Abydos also became Daniel's new home after he helped the
people gain their freedom from the Goa'uld System Lord Ra who had
ruled Abydos for centuries. Daniel then married the Abydonian
native Sha're. Abydos and the Abydonians were all eventually
destroyed by Anubis, the half ascended being and half Goa'uld, but
those Abydonians who died in that struggle were helped to ascend to
a higher plane of existence by Oma Desala, an ancient who ascended
herself millennia ago.</p>
<p>After Abydos was destroyed, a stone with unknown glyphs was
discovered in the deserts of Abydos. It is believed to have been
written by Oma Desala herself, but unproven. We have been unable to
decipher the glyphs believed to have been left on Abydos by Oma
Desala</p>

While coming up with some ideas for new puzzle caches, I was
reminded of a funny story and thought to share it with you. Names
have been changed to protect the innocent.
<p>This couple we know bought a Cruiser from a guy named Milton in
early summer one year, I think around the first of June. By the
time payment was arranged and the car was Shipped, about a month
had passed. In the mean time this couple had planned their first
trip to Pearl Harbor, and were looking forward to the long drive
with the new Cruiser. When the car arrived there was only a single
set of keys with it. He intended to get additional keys soon, but
hadn't gotten around to doing that yet. A few days before the trip,
he had arranged to take the car into their mechanic early one
morning for some minor work. When they were leaving the house he
found that the Cruiser keys were missing from the key rack, which
is near the front door. He checked the garage, checked the Cruiser,
checked the floor of the garage, checked the trunk lid, he checked
everywhere. No keys anywhere. Disgusted, they went to work, and
when they got home that evening, He again checked all those places
and more with no success. He has a habit of misplacing things and
was really upset with himself for losing the only set of keys they
had for this car.</p>
<p>Finally, Nancy said she would look for them. She thought perhaps
he had overlooked some place where they may be hiding. She went out
into the garage as he stayed inside and nursed a beer to keep his
temperature down. As she revisited the garage she tried to think of
all the places the keys could have slid or fallen into. Just about
to give up, she looked at the trunk lid and thought, maybe Ronald
laid the keys on the lid and they could have slid off of it. She
looked under the car with no success. Then, as an after thought,
she ran her hand down into the cavity where the top of the rear
bumper guard meets the curve of the bumper. Soon she came back
inside, with a triumphant smile. Ronald asked "did you find the
lost keys?" She replied "no, but look at this." What she had found
was one of those metal Hide-A-Key boxes, snuggled in the cavity
behind the bumper guard. Inside was a spare set of keys. The day
was saved, the trip could go on.</p>
<p>So, thanks to some unknown previous owner who had the foresight
to place spare keys in the box and place the box in its hidey hole
where a future owner could find it who knows how many years later,
they were able to drive their new Cruiser and visit our fallen
heroes as planned. It makes you wonder how many other spare keys
remain secure in their hiding places on how many other cars,
faithfully and patiently awaiting the time when they will be needed
by their current owners.</p>

Alternate parking at 40 degrees, 41.081 and 089 degrees, 28.430. This is very limited parking and DO NOT BLOCK THE GATE. This will also require a creek crossing.

<p><i>This Cache Is Not At The Posted Coordinates!</i></p>Iris Park was named after Iris Wasson, daughter of land donor Irvie
Wasson. We have been unable to uncover additional detail about this
little unknown park in Peoria. Iris Park is a very nice little park
to walk the dog, let the children run and play or even get in a
little iron practice for the golfer in you.
<p>This is a two-stage multicache. However; you must first find our
other two caches hidden within the confines of this park first and
obtain the coordinates for the beginning of this multicache. The
west coordinates are hidden within one cache, while the north
coordinates are hidden within the other.</p>

Peek-In Parks Triple Play #2WeengersWeengersOtherRegular23.5United StatesIllinoisParking Coordinates: N40 35.617 W089 36.295 This well-marked trail
will give you a work out. It has its ups and downs. It is about a
.75 mile hike to the cache with several easy creek crossings.
Walking sticks are very helpful during the slippery
season.Peek-In Parks Triple Play series is a group of three caches that
will introduce you to Pekin Park District’s three outer parks. The
first two caches contain coordinates to the third cache. <br />
<br />
These caches are placed with the permission of the Pekin Park
District. Our thanks to the Director of Parks and Superintendent of
Parks for their approval, and a special thank you to the
Superintendent of Recreation for the time and effort she put into
making this happen. If you run across the Chief Ranger be sure to
talk with him. We’ve been told that he is very proud of these outer
parks and is happy to see them utilized. You can find a map of this
park
<a href="http://www.pekin.net/pekinparkdistrict/policerangerdivision/mcnaughton.gif">
here</a>. For more information about Pekin Park District go to
<a href="http://www.pekin.net/pekinparkdistrict/">this
website</a>.<br />
<br />
The cache container is a 7.62 mm ammo can (10 x 8 x 4). When
placed it contained a logbook & pencil, flashlight, doll set,
6’ tape measure, compass set, small diagonal pliers, luggage lock,
mini-deck of cards, tissues, patriotic pen, small toy cars, and
glow-in-the-dark superballs. <br />
<br />
Written in the lid are one half of the coordinates that you will
need to find
<a href="http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=106893">
Peek-In Parks Triple Play #3 cache</a>.<br />
<br />
This cache is located roughly 20 feet off the trail. Stay on the
trails. There is absolutely no reason to leave them until the last
20 feet or so. This is the second of three pilot caches that the
Pekin Park District has allowed us to place. If all goes well they
will consider allowing more caches to be placed in their 2,500
acres of parkland. As always, Cache In, Trash Out!<br />

Hop-o'-my-thumb's Trail Ndirty dog duodirty dog duoTraditional CacheMicro21.5United StatesIllinoisONCE upon a time there was a Geocacher and his wife who had four children. The eldest was only ten years old. They were very old geocachers, and their four children were a great burden, since not one of them was able to earn a living.
What troubled them still more was the fact that the youngest was not only very delicate, but silent, which they took for stupidity, but which was really a mark of his good sense. He was very small, and when he was born he was scarcely bigger than one's thumb, which caused him to be called little "Hop-o'-My-Thumb." This poor child was the scapegoat of the house, and was blamed for everything. He was, however, sharper and wiser than all his brothers, and though he spoke little, he listened a great deal.
At last, the Year of Geocaching came, and so great a year it was that the people resolved to hide the smallest caches of all. The people decided that the best and only one that could hide these caches was none other than "Hop-o'-My-Thumb". So the people of this small hamlet employed "Hop-o'-My-Thumb" to create a very small series of caches to be searched for on the great Day of Geocache Celebration. If he succeeded in creating a small series of caches by the "Day of Geocache" he and his family would never again have to worry about where their next meals would come from.
"Hop-o'-My-Thumb" created a series smaller than any other, and the hamlet celebrated like never before. After the great "Day of Geocache" he obtained permission from the Morton Park District to keep this series of caches in place for future geocachers to search for. Since the original placement of this series the Morton Park District has paved the trail so that the old muddy path is now a well groomed blacktopped trail. They even provided parking at 40 37.116N 089 28.224W. "Hop-o'-My-Thumb" suggests using your wee little bike for this six mile round trip ride. He also suggests bringing tweezers, pen, and paper. If you desirer a longer ride continue on the trail to the middle of the nearby hamlet of East Peoria.
The series consist of:

The ghost of Old Stone Church RoadCav Scout and Cachin BanditCav ScoutTraditional CacheMicro1.52United StatesIllinoisSmall micro hidden out on Old Stone Church Road. This road has so much history and local legend stories about it. I wanted to place a cache near the church but found out the church already has one. Wish more work would be put into those caches because of the local history there. This cache is dedicated to the urban legend ghost story about this road.Rumor has it that a man died on this road and his spirit was stuck there with his car. (I am getting chills writing this to you guys). The road runs right off the road that I take to get to my girlfriend's. Every time I go by that road I would see car lights just sitting there. They were not white, but yellow. One night, me and my friends Jeff and Danny got the guts to check it out. We turned down the road and just started driving. We got about 20 seconds down the road when we saw a car parked on the side and a man in the street. So we slowed down. We had a good feeling what it was, but we couldn’t turn around, so we had to keep going to get off the road. But the guy wouldn’t move.
My hardcore friend Danny got out and asked the guy what his problem was. But the guy just looked at him without saying a word. Danny was getting mad that the guy wouldn’t answer him, so he kept yelling. I started getting chills, and so did my other friend. I knew something was wrong. I told Danny to get back in the truck and lets get out of here. He listened and got in the truck. We kept staring at the guy and he didn’t move. I turned around for a second to turn on the music, and when I turned back to look again the guy was gone. Along with the car.
I knew it was the ghost. To this day I get chills whenever I drive past that road, like the ghost knows me and my friends. I still see the lights every once in awhile.”No Tresspassing.GCJ6X0SKARURE by TwoEagles (4/3)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=d1267a60-9e14-4d17-a9cd-908c9dd05958SKARURE by TwoEaglesGeocacheGeocache|Multi-cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0SKARURE2011-11-11GCJ6X0false0

But a small school in New York has instituted a language curriculum to preserve and perpetuate the heritage of the Tuscarora.

Potawatomi Red - Key FobdustystardustystarMulti-cacheRegular23.5United StatesIllinoisPotawatomi Red is a series of four caches intended to give you a tour of the south end of McNaughton Park (a Registered Reserve), which includes part of the Potawatomi Trail. Each of the first three may be found in any order while the fourth cache needs clues from those first three locations. Recommended parking is at 40 degrees, 34.968 minutes and 089 degrees, 36.214 minutes.This trail has a long history and many area Boy Scouts can recount tails of both building the trail and having grand adventures during various camping trips. It is marked with red blazes on trees or red markers along over 7 miles of narrow, wild trail within the park. The Park plays host to an annual Ultra Marathon race, has a challenging 16 hole disk golf course, and has a nearby horse riding stable.
Thanks to the Pekin Park District for approving this cache!
Key Fob is intended to give you a place to trade all those promotional key fobs. If you can, please trade a key fob for a key fob.

Fire Tacs After Dark (Night Cache)DustystardustystarUnknown CacheRegular24United StatesIllinoisThis cache is intended to be hunted in darkness using a flashlight. The starting coords take you to the first location. Retro-reflective material marks the route. Getting disorientated is likely. You will need a flashlight. A back up flashlight as well as extra batteries for your GPS might also be a good idea. The final is an ammo box with “luminous” theme trade trinkets. Plan on at least 90 minutes from parking to parking. I recommend parking at 40 34.968, 89 36.214.Hours. The Park closes at 10 P.M. You must be out of the park by 10 P.M. The Park Rangers know about his cache. They know, you know. So, consider yourselves warned. They will. The Park opens at 6 A.M. for you early risers.
Fire Tacks and Flashlights. Fire tacks are small pieces of RETRO Reflective material. That means, they reflect light directly back to where it came from – on a very narrow beam. You should hold your flashlight as near to your eye level as possible for the best results. Even as close as your shoulder will dim the reflection, as far away as your waist might fade completely away. I recommend a pointed pistol approach – unless you have the 7 cell maglight where the rifle sighting approach should be used. Do this right and you will see them as bright orange or bright white/amber spots. Your flashlight can be a double edged sword. The stronger and brighter the light source, the stronger the reflection from the Fire Tack but at the same time, bright lights reduce your night vision. You might want to use one source for lighting your path and another for searching. Remember, around 90 minutes of darkness, so don’t run out of battery/charge without a backup plan!
The Plan. The starting coords will take you to the first location. Double tacks denote a start point. From there, find single tacks to guide you along. Some will be near and easy to spot, others will be at greater distance and require a bit of moving about to find – moving further than 10 feet is never required to spot the next tack and mostly you need to merely duck or sway to see it. Again, remember to have your light source at eye level! If you see more than 2 tacks together, you should find something important at that location.
McNaughton Park at Night. It is, well, dark. So, here are a few helpful hints or ideas.
I think the terrain rating in the daylight would be a 3, I’ve added one for the darkness. Use my suggested parking and head east up the hill on the well worn trail (trust me on this, at least until the top of the hill). If you do, you will not have to walk in water, unless it’s raining. Also, I will have helpful hints on how to get out of the park at the final, if you want to use them. If you don’t park at the suggested coords, well, you are on your own and I hope you marked that location on your GPS.
There are countless sections of old fencing, so watch for it to avoid getting tripped up.
There are billions of stick tight style seed pods that hitch a ride on your clothes. Wear as slick of material as you have or risk being covered with them.
The park has many nocturnal animals so don’t be surprised if you encounter them. They include deer, owl, raccoon, skunk, fox, coyote, possum, rabbit, spiders and various insects. Oh, if your flashlight picks up a tiny bright green reflection, that would be the eyes of the giant wolf spider – one of many night time hunters. So think twice before reaching for a tree to steady your walk.
This cache is approved on a trial bases by the Pekin Park District.

<p>For years I've been told about a cemetery in McNaughton park. I
first heard of the cemetery during a junior high school trip in
1978. My friends said they saw the cemetery when riding horses out
in the park but unfortunatly could not relocate the cemetery. Years
have since gone by. Recently my nephew found the cemetery while
riding his mountain bike out in the park. He told his dad about it
and then he told me. My nephew Cachin' Bandit and myself decided to
look for the cemetery. What we found is intersting and here is my
story.</p>
<p>Today on 29 December 2007 I picked up my nephew Cachin' Bandit
and together we drove out to McNaughton Park to look for the old
Meyers Cemetery. On the way to McNaughton Park we saw a old man
walking along the road. I suggested that we stop and ask the old
man about the cemetery. I stopped the Jeep and my nephew started
with the questions about the Meyer Cemetery and asked the old man
if he knew where it was. The old man had a crazed look and said
"yes I know where it is, but its been years since I been out to
that old cemetery, why do you kids want to go out messing in a
place like that?"</p>

target="_blank"><img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b290/cavscout0711/MrQuixote.jpg"
border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></center>
<p>He then said something I will never forget because of the
distant look in his eyes. This is what the old man said, "I
remember the day well. It was the Fall of 1943 when that Miller boy
went out to the old cemetery looking for his coon hound. I can
still hear the howling and that poor Miller boy screaming. I ran
all the way out there and all I could find was a bloody shirt and
the dogs leash. We never did find that Miller boy". After saying
that the old man just stared off into the distance.</p>

border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></center>
<p>For a moment I felt I was wasting my time. I then asked if he
could tell me how to get to the cemetery. He told me in half
riddles how to get there. He mentioned lookout hill, a large tree
standing alone, a hedge row, and said something about a old brick
house. I wrote most of what he said to me and my nephew. When I was
writting down the instructions I paused to look up and ask another
question. When I looked up the old man was gone! It was as if he
just vanished into thin air. I asked Cashin Bandit if he seen where
the old man went and he said no I did'nt see him leave. I got out
of my jeep and saw nothing, no footprints, nothing. Weird I
thought.</p>
<p>We continued on into the park to start our search. We looked for
what the old man mentioned, the hedge row, the lookout hill, the
brick house, and then before we knew it I saw a clearing with a
small cemetery. It was very old. When I walked into the cemetery
the wind picked up, and for a few moments I thought I heard howling
of some sort followed by a faint scream. I'm not sure if this is
what I really heard but it sure did sound spooky and about scared
me out of my wits.</p>

<p>We stayed at the cemetery for short while. I counted 12 people
buried here. The graves are old and its surrounded with an antique
iron fence.</p>
<p>I would never come out here at night, not even on a bet.</p>
<p>I wonder what ever happened to that Miller boy.</p>

I was only in the area for a few days but was able to find a good number of them. Since I have a relative living in Peoria who also caches (<a href="http://www.geocaching.com/profile/?guid=572477f8-7919-46cb-b303-bf0a562571ac">Nathannah</a>) I have a built-in local cache maintainer. I also placed the cache on Thanksgiving Day.<p>The cache is hidden along the property line of a cemetery but is on city property. Be respectful of non-caching visitors. The cache is smaller than a film canister and reasonably well camouflaged. Be careful while retrieving the cache as you could move it the wrong direction making it near impossible to get your hands on. Bring your own writing implement and maybe tweezers to help extricate the logsheet from this small container. Please write as small as possible; no need to write anything but your name or initials. Replace the cache so that the non-camouflaged end is not visible.<p>As part of the online logging process let me know for what you are thankful.

Hop-o'-my-thumb's Petdirty dog duodirty dog duoTraditional CacheMicro21.5United StatesIllinoisONCE upon a time there was a Geocacher and his wife who had four children. The eldest was only ten years old. They were very old geocachers, and their four children were a great burden, since not one of them was able to earn a living.
What troubled them still more was the fact that the youngest was not only very delicate, but silent, which they took for stupidity, but which was really a mark of his good sense. He was very small, and when he was born he was scarcely bigger than one's thumb, which caused him to be called little "Hop-o'-My-Thumb." This poor child was the scapegoat of the house, and was blamed for everything. He was, however, sharper and wiser than all his brothers, and though he spoke little, he listened a great deal.
At last, the Year of Geocaching came, and so great a year it was that the people resolved to hide the smallest caches of all. The people decided that the best and only one that could hide these caches was none other than "Hop-o'-My-Thumb". So the people of this small hamlet employed "Hop-o'-My-Thumb" to create a very small series of caches to be searched for on the great Day of Geocache Celebration. If he succeeded in creating a small series of caches by the "Day of Geocache" he and his family would never again have to worry about where their next meals would come from.
"Hop-o'-My-Thumb" created a series smaller than any other, and the hamlet celebrated like never before. After the great "Day of Geocache" he obtained permission from the Morton Park District to keep this series of caches in place for future geocachers to search for. Since the original placement of this series the Morton Park District has paved the trail so that the old muddy path is now a well groomed blacktopped trail. They even provided parking at 40 37.116N 089 28.224W. "Hop-o'-My-Thumb" suggests using your wee little bike for this six mile round trip ride. He also suggests bringing tweezers, pen, and paper. If you desirer a longer ride continue on the trail to the middle of the nearby hamlet of East Peoria.
The series consist of:

Back in my college days, I used to do some side work as a pipe
fitter’s assistant. All that really meant was I carried around
heavy pipes, dug holes and helped joint the elbows together. One
thing about that type of work, it was good money for a college kid.
I recall my foreman was a rather stubborn ole mule. I used to try
to dream up ways to get him all worked up, of course making sure I
wasn’t indicated in any of the wrong doings on the work site.
<p>On day we went to a new job site where we had to lay and fit
this funky setup for a cooling/drainage system. I got this wild
hair and decided to “help out.” Well, needless to say when we got
done things looked a little strange, but in the end everything got
to where it was supposed to go.</p>

Sommer Park Geo-Score-O 3-27-04Illinois River Valley Orienteering ClubGazza&GirlsOtherNot chosen12United StatesIllinoisFor the second year Peoria's orienteering club will be holding a Score-O event at W. H. Sommer Park on Saturday, March 27. A GPS Users division will be setup. Before the event geocachers will meet-up to obtain the coordinates and hang-out afterward for fellowship and discussion. Difficulty rating is based on the easiest controls. To attempt all controls would be 1/4, depending on route choice. Registration/Start is at the Woodland Shelter.A Score-O is an orienteering event where the participant sets their own course, attempting to find as many controls as they can within a set time limit. Controls will have different point values. The one with the most points in the shortest time wins. There will be a small prize for the top scoring geocacher.<br>The coordinates for the controls will be provided with time to enter them, along with a map of the park. Imagine the task of finding 20+ caches in 90 minutes. That's what Score-O is. Since Sommer Park is a reservation only park, this is a unique opportunity to explore. Control points have been chosen with this in mind.<br>Sommer Park is just on the west edge of Peoria, on Koerner Road, 1/2 mile south of Rte 150. There is an entry fee of $5/map + $1/person for this event to cover the cost of park use and printing.<br>Registration opens at 9:00, Geocachers gathering at 9:30, Mass Start 10:00. Post a note if you would like some orienteering instruction before the event.<br>Container will be available for trades and logbook.GCX4WJFarmington's End by Fuzzy B (3/1.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=7250b5aa-6121-436a-b9a4-8e861cfc3cadFarmington's End by Fuzzy BGeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0Farmingt2011-11-11GCX4WJfalse0

What troubled them still more was the fact that the youngest was not only very delicate, but silent, which they took for stupidity, but which was really a mark of his good sense. He was very small, and when he was born he was scarcely bigger than one's thumb, which caused him to be called little "Hop-o'-My-Thumb." This poor child was the scapegoat of the house, and was blamed for everything. He was, however, sharper and wiser than all his brothers, and though he spoke little, he listened a great deal.
At last, the Year of Geocaching came, and so great a year it was that the people resolved to hide the smallest caches of all. The people decided that the best and only one that could hide these caches was none other than "Hop-o'-My-Thumb". So the people of this small hamlet employed "Hop-o'-My-Thumb" to create a very small series of caches to be searched for on the great Day of Geocache Celebration. If he succeeded in creating a small series of caches by the "Day of Geocache" he and his family would never again have to worry about where their next meals would come from.
"Hop-o'-My-Thumb" created a series smaller than any other, and the hamlet celebrated like never before. After the great "Day of Geocache" he obtained permission from the Morton Park District to keep this series of caches in place for future geocachers to search for. Since the original placement of this series the Morton Park District has paved the trail so that the old muddy path is now a well groomed blacktopped trail. They even provided parking at 40 37.116N 089 28.224W. "Hop-o'-My-Thumb" suggests using your wee little bike for this six mile round trip ride. He also suggests bringing tweezers, pen, and paper. If you desirer a longer ride continue on the trail to the middle of the nearby hamlet of East Peoria.
The series consist of:

Fishing with MacGyverdirty dog duodirty dog duoTraditional CacheMicro3.53United StatesIllinoisFishing with MacGyver
Hi, my name is MacGyver. You probably remember me. Secret agent. Action hero. Always prepared for adventure. Well, I've retired from the spy business. But I still love a good mystery and adventure. So now my best friend, Magellan, and I travel all over geocaching. We have had some great adventures, some of which we will be sharing with you.
To help you gain the right state of mind for this cache listen to my theme music while reading below: www.rock13.com/macg//macg.mid
As a little boy my favorite thing to do was to go fishing with my grandfather.
He had this secret spot that he'd take me to. But he didn't just take me fishing, he taught me how to fish. At first it was simply. He showed me how to put a worm on the hook. How to watch the bobber. How to use weights. How to give that gentle tug to set the hook. How to take the fish off the hook. He started me off easy, fishing from the dock for blue gill and sunfish. Later on he taught me all about lures for catching bass and northern. Eventually he showed me how to tie my own flies for fly fishing. Eventually my tackle box was filled with all the right gear for a successful fishing trip.
As all good geocachers know, having the proper equipment in the knapsack is essential. The more Magellan and I go geocaching the more things we pick up along the way and add to our bag of resources. Things like a pen or pencil (I prefer a pen in the summer and a pencil in the winter), gloves (you never know where you might have to put your hands), rain ponchos (obvious), bottled water (I like the 24oz plastic size because they are small, disposable, and two fit easily in the sides of my pack), and a penlight flashlight (penlight because it is light weight and it uses the same batteries my buddy Magellan uses),and a copy of the cache instructions with us, just to name a few.
I have used all of these while caching, and some not in the ways you might think. But none the less, all have been extremely important to the success of some caching adventures.
Check your gear and see if you have what's needed to be successful on this fishing expedition. And remember, always prepare for caching adventure!
WARNING: To claim this cache as a find you MUST sign the log sheet and email us with what MacGyver skills or resources you used. Finding the cache but failing to sign the log will not be considered a valid find!

But rather the above coordinates will take you to the starting point of this mystery/multiple step night cache.
Cachers will need a good illumination device and a sense of calm and adventure to complete this cache. Final cache is big enough to be discovered with the right light.Operation Night Hawk.
Mission- Link up at 2100hrs Zulu with 2LT Wiseowl for coordination and recieve instructions for mission.
Once you arrive at LZ you will need to do a 360 with your sure fire maglight. Continue to flash your light until you see the two distintive white lights. The two white lights is 2LT Wiseowl's position. Once you arrive to LT Wiseowl's position and make coordination, you will be allowed to move in what ever military tactical foramtion you desire. We suggest using bounding overwatch because enemy contact is likely and stealth is required.
To start your movement use your surefire maglight to find the next flash dot. These flash dots will take you to the objective. Some flash dots will be close (50 feet) while others will be far apart (300 feet). All Flash Dots are white in color.
The objective will be marked by several white flashdots. They will resemble the face of the Night Hawk. When you see this you have made your objective.Here, the cache is near by. Its up to you to find the cache with the follow on mission.
Once mission is complete you will move to the open field for extraction by Blackhawk helicopters.
DANGER!!! Insurgents have infiltrated the park area and are harrasing the local population. They are in civilian attire and carry an assortment of weapons (AK47s, RPGs, SVD sniper rifles) Military intel has informed us that two suicide vests have been smuggled in from Syria. The insurgents are motivated and prepared to fight to the death. So be on the watchout.
WARNING!!! You will cross rivers, open danger areas, linear crossings, and mine fields. Be prepared and carry one CLS bag and have at least one combat medic or two combat lifesavers.

Morton's Erratic BoulderCav Scout, Platinum Earthcache MasterCav ScoutEarthcacheNot chosen1.51.5United StatesIllinoisLarge Erratic located next to the road.Here and there in Illinois are boulders lying alone or with companions in the corner of a field or someone's yard, on a courthouse lawn or a schoolyard. Many of them—colorful and glittering granites, banded gneisses, and other intricately veined and streaked igneous and metamorphic rocks—seem out of place in the stoneless, grassy knolls and prairies of our state. Their "erratic" occurrence is the reason for their interesting name.
Many boulders were probably dropped directly from the melting front of the glacier. Others may have been rafted to their present resting places by icebergs in ancient lakes or on floodwaters of some long-vanished stream as it poured from a glacier. Still others, buried in the glacial deposits, could have worked their way up to the land surface as the surrounding loose soil repeatedly froze and thawed. When the freezing ground expands, pieces of rock tend to be pushed upward, where they are more easily reached by the farmer's plow and also more likely to be exposed by erosion.
Many erratics are of notable size and beauty. Some are used as monuments in courthouse squares and parks (as ssn here), or along highways. Many are marked with metal plaques to indicate an interesting historical spot or event.
This Erratic boulder was possibly from the Canadian territories bought here thousands of years ago by the glaciers that once covered the Illinois plains. If you look and feel the sides of the boulder you can see how the glaciers dragged and smoothed the sides of the rock.
To get credit for cache answer the following questions.
1. How tall is the boulder?
2. What kind of rock is the erratic?
To get credit for cache find post a picture of yourself with GPS in hand and erratic in background.
Logs with no picture will be deleted.Keep an eye out for erratics. You may find some of these glacial strangers in your neighborhood.

Mac Gyver's "IT'S RIGHT UNDER YOUR NOSE!"dirty dog duodirty dog duoTraditional CacheMicro21.5United StatesIllinoisMac Gyver and Magellan here again. We've just returned from another caching adventure. Thought maybe you were ready for another fun challenge. We have added more resources to our knapsack. Actually it was Magellan's idea to put in the wire clothes hanger. He said you never know when it could come in handy as a hook or long piece of sturdy wire for something. With a 7 in 1 tool the possibilities are endless. So we'll see.
Anyway have you ever noticed how things that you experienced as a kid help you down the road at some point or another? Of course, most of the time as kids we don’t understand until we're grown then it's like that proverbial light bulb that pops on and we see everything clearly. For example, how many times were you looking for something, and you couldn't find it. You thought you searched out every possible spot it could have been in. So you went to mom or dad for their help. Their response might have been something like this: "If it was a snake it would bite you." Or "It's right under you nose." Well, that pretty much describes this cache. Finding the location should be easy, but retrieving the cache and signing the log sheet might take some ingenuity. But just remember "It's right under your nose!"
As all good geocachers know, having the proper equipment in the knapsack is essential. The more Magellan and I go geocaching the more things we pick up along the way and add to our bag of resources. Things like a pen or pencil (I prefer a pen in the summer and a pencil in the winter), extra log books to help out a fellow cacher when his or her cache's log book is full, a snack or two for those long hikes, and a copy of the cache instructions with us, just to name a few.
I have used all of these while caching, and some not in the ways you might think. But none the less, all have been extremely important to the success of some caching adventure.
This cache is on a nicely groomed trail except for the last 10 feet. When you find the cache please remove only the black cap. Please do not remove the item in the "mouth" but use it and your ingenuity to gain access to the cache.
Bring your own pen!
Check your gear and see if you have what's needed to be successful on this expedition. And remember, always prepare for caching adventure!
WARNING: To claim this cache as a find you must sign the log sheet. Finding the cache but failing to sign the log will not be considered a valid find!

<p>Years ago when I was a kid, I would ride my road bike out to
this old cemetery. I can remember in the Summer how peacefull it
was and remembered the cold winds that would sweep across the open
fields in the Winter.</p>
<p>The graves are old. Here you will find the farmers, workers,
first settlers, and War Veretans at rest in the little piece of
land that is their final resting place.</p>
<p>There are times at night when you can hear voices, laughter, and
whispers nearby. The strange part is that you will see no one when
you hear this.</p>

Cherry Festival Cache 2004CacherJohannCacherJohannUnknown CacheRegular32United StatesIllinoisThis is a challenge cache placed to coincide with the 2004 Washington Illinois Cherry Festival. After the festival, this will revert to being a normal cache which follows my theme of historical sites in northern Tazewell County.At each of the ten following locations, there are one or more dates relating to the history of Washington. Take the last digit of the earliest date at each location, and use them to solve the following puzzle:

N40deg42.204 W089deg24.222

Puzzle:
N40deg42.XXX W089deg23.XXX
key: XXXX
The prize for the first finder is a $25 gift certificate for Lindy's Downtown Market in Washington. The cache is a green tackle box well stocked with additional prizes for young and old, including: 3 mini-caribiners, a compass/whistle/thermometer, a hot wheels car, a jacks set, a pin on compass globe, a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles card deck, a small basketball toy, a flashlight, pencils and sharpener (leave one for the log book!), and two travel bugs.
The cache is on public (not private) property, and the best approach is from the east.You must rearrange the ten digits from the dates to make the coordinates and the key.
For example: The last three digits of the west coordinate are made up of digits from clues 1, 3, and 9
The last three digits of the north coordinate are made up of digits from clues 2, 5, and 8GC2TQC4jeankr by kwew (2/1.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=5199fa9e-f74a-4841-a126-eec8d58b6f9bjeankr by kwewGeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0Jeankr2011-11-11GC2TQC4false0

Morton Puzzle 2dirty dog duodirty dog duoOtherNot chosen21United StatesIllinoisThank you to the Director of Morton Park District, the staff, and the Park District Board for their enthusiastic permission to place this series of caches in the Morton Parks.
The Morton Puzzle 1, 2, 3, and Final series is a group of caches that will take you back to years before computers and hand held games. Yes, you will need your GPS unit to find the cache locations but before you turn your unit on get out your number two pencil and eraser.
All caches are on Morton Park District Land.
Your goal should be to visit Morton Puzzle Series, log your visits, and use the clues to help you along the way. The clues in each cache are a series of numbers and arrows. These numbers and arrows must be used in the attached 15 Puzzle. If you are not familiar with the game it is suggested that you use the web to understand how this games works before setting out on your journey.
It is highly recommended that you do this series in order as the clues are designed to help you progress on your journey.
Bring your own pen or pencil and paper to record the clues you find along the way. The cache containers get progressively larger on at least one of the dimensions (length, width, or height). The first one is larger than a film canister. 1, 2 & 3 contain no trading items. The final large container is stuffed full of puzzles and games. Bring a small puzzle, game, crossword etc. to trade as the theme of this series is puzzles. The first one to find this cache will be rewarded with a special old/new game to remember this cache by.
The above coordinates are for parking. Solve the attached puzzle to locate the cache coordinates.

Hang it up?dirty dog duodirty dog duoTraditional CacheNot chosen21.5United StatesIllinoisWe plunged through the undergrowth, barely noticing the swarm of gnats or their mosquito escort that hummed about our heads. -200 feet to go- We glanced pensively upwards at the canopy of foliage above us, realizing that enough leaves remained to possibly interfere with the already weak satellite signal strength. -170 feet- Past the lake we dredged, making a mental note to return some day and try our hand at fishing this still place.
The moist stick tights and twigs that our hurried steps kicked up clung to our socks, annoying us all the more as we would have to pause to pick ourselves clean, delaying our arrival at the objective. We knew that cold, merciless death could be lurking behind any tree, concealed behind any bush. Suddenly, a sharp crack of a branch snapped our attention to the right. Our GPS said the target was 120 feet away as we halted immediately, dropping to a crouch, hopefully out of the sight of whatever had gained entry into our area.
Silently, we cursed ourselves for the summer camouflage we was wearing, regretting that we failed to take the time to don the browner autumn apparel. Deer or bear might miss us but dreaded geomuggles could be a different story. Completely unarmed, we dared not move, even to wipe the face paint tinted sweat from our brows, not wishing to compromise our already exposed position. We could hear the soft whispering of the wind through the trees and the faint caws of distant crows, clearly upset at something. Squatting motionless for what seemed to be an eternity, our legs began to burn and our toes began to cramp as we commenced a visual sweep of the vicinity, our eyes lingering in the direction of the hidden cache. Could it be there? Maybe over there?
Our minds raced as we considered our ever dwindling options. Sprint the final 40 yards or slowly stand to face whatever geo-terror might be stalking us? Should we continue the excruciating wait or face our fate head-on in what we always had hoped to be a blaze of glory, earning us a place in the oral histories told over generations at geo-campfires. We steeled our nerves, took a deep breath and stood, ignoring our leg muscles screaming in agony. There! A young 4 point buck bolted back into the brush, more alarmed than us at sudden movement. We sighed a deep sigh of relief, momentarily terrified at the thought of hand to hand combat with a geomuggle. We had lived to cache another day.
We double checked our GPS heading and quickened our pace to nearly a trot, cold sweat running down between our shoulder blades. At a reading of 4 feet we halted, knowing that from here on, we could only succeed by our own wits and instincts. Our heads swiveled back and forth, scanning all potential concealments. Our raptor like gaze locked upon the most promising possibility. Dropping to our belly, We crawled to a suspected cache location that looked ever so slightly out of place. We had deduced correctly!
Feverishly, we opened the cache. To our relief, the logbook was on top, no need to waste precious time digging through swag. Taking nothing, we quickly signed the log with our ever trusty pen and thrust the log in it's extraordinarily rare and highly coveted container. For the time being, mankind would be safe from its influence, until the next unsuspecting geocacher was snared by its irresistible draw.
We rapidly closed the cache and re-concealed it, knowing that every second we delayed increased our risk of being uncovered. Carefully concealing any traces of our presence, we silently left by a different route than the one we had entered by. As we burst out from the scrub, our bodies tingled with relief, having survived another cache find without being glimpsed or having to shed blood in that epic struggle known as geocaching.
Finding ourselves reassured, we headed for home to change into urban camouflage and re-equip ourselves for the next harrowing task – stealthily locating and utilizing a wireless enabled coffee shop to log that valuable cache find. The adrenaline flow would only subside, until the next time when danger reared its ugly head. We had beaten the Reaper once again.
Do you have the caching savvy it takes to conquer this cache experience? Or will you just hang it up as a DNF?

Volunteers work!StfRonStfRonTraditional CacheSmall11United StatesIllinoisYou're looking for a larger than normal 'SMALL' cache, it should be large enough to hold coins, small TB's etc. The hiding location should be fairly obvious, as this new park is pretty barren. The park is named after Harry LaHood, a Washington resident who volunteered in the community for many years before his untimely death of a viral infection in 1999.
And as always, a HUGE thanks to Doug Damery and the Washington Park District for their support of our hobby.GC18AMXholiday hangover by sms020906 (1.5/1.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=52a933cb-bb79-412e-89b1-c858fd10e2a5holiday hangover by sms020906GeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0Holidayn2011-11-11GC18AMXfalse0

place cache back in the location you found it. Let me know if my

snow mix. I thought to myself... "Who in their right mind would go
out and hide a Geocache in this terrible weather?" ...... ......
...... Couldn't think of anyone, so I decided to take this
opportunity upon myself.<br />
<br />
As I was trying to upload the data from the memory card in my
GPSr, my computer suddenly crashed and went to all to famous "Blue
Screen Of Death" that we Windoze users have become much to familiar
with. After I booted my computer (using a size 12 shoe), all that
was displayed was a bunch of random letters and numbers....maybe
you can help me figure out where I hid my cache...<br />

Why buy one when you can make one?Think about using a refillable bottle instead of buying a new bottle for water. Think about taking your own grocery bag to the store.

Hidden Pond CacheJeepsterJeepsterOtherMicro21United StatesIllinois*************** Geocaching Urban Style ***************You will find adequate parking at N40° 42.235’ W089° 25.340’. Since this is an urban cache, any type of clothing is appropriate. There is no poison ivy, no ticks, no spiders and plenty of nearby shelter if it rains. The container is a clear film canister. After logging your find, continue on around the pond to get back to your vehicle … remember, this is a micro-cache in all ways, so even the hike has been down-sized.
Although out of the way, this site is not hidden that much, so please be discrete with your searching. The coordinates are very, very close ... but something at this location moves you around more than normal over the course of the day. So, you've still got a good shot at having to exercise your mind. Please report if you were able to find the cache without the clue.
I want to thank the property manager for granting permission to hide the cache in this location.Remember your mother telling you? -- "If it was a bear, it would have bitten you." Well, in this case it’s true, because the cache is right there in front of your face.2006-03-11T08:00:00ZFound itkorey99First caching trip of the spring.

Peek-In Parks Triple Play #3WeengersWeengersOtherRegular2.52United StatesIllinoisThe cache is not at the listed coordinates. Those are parking coordinates. Cache coordinates must be obtained from Peek-In Parks Triple Play #1 & #2. This well-marked trail covers gently rolling hills in this 40 acre park. It is about a half mile hike to the cache.Peek-In Parks Triple Play series is a group of three caches that will introduce you to Pekin Park District’s three outer parks. The first two caches contain coordinates to the third cache.<br><br>
These caches are placed with the permission of the Pekin Park District. Our thanks to the Director of Parks and Superintendent of Parks for their approval, and a special thank you to the Superintendent of Recreation for the time and effort she put into making this happen. If you run across the Chief Ranger be sure to talk with him. We’ve been told that he is very proud of these outer parks and is happy to see them utilized. For more information about Pekin Park District go to <A HREF="http://www.pekin.net/pekinparkdistrict/">this website</a>.<br><br>
The cache container is a 7.62 mm ammo can (10 x 8 x 4). When placed it contained a logbook & pencil, USA 2003 Geocoin TB, keychain flashlight, 6’ tape measure, cell phone head set, compass set, small diagonal pliers, luggage lock, mini-deck of cards, tissues, patriotic pen, small toy cars, and glow-in-the-dark superballs. <br><br>
This cache is located roughly 20 feet off the trail. Stay on the trails. There is absolutely no reason to leave them until the last 20 feet or so. This is the third of three pilot caches that the Pekin Park District has allowed us to place. If all goes well they will consider allowing more caches to be placed in their 2,500 acres of parkland. As always, Cache In, Trash Out!<br><br>
Enjoy the hike! Park Hours 6:00 AM - 10:00 PM<br><br>

They would appreciate it if you stay on the trails as much as possible. This cache is child unit and geo-pup friendly. Be safe!Listed coordinates are parking coordinates.

Divide that number by two (B).N40 (A).076W089 31.1(B)1These coordinates will take you to a concrete boundary marker post. Note the number of letters on the post (C). Go 380 ft.

Divide the number of rungs on the horizontal section by three (E).N40 3(C).852W089 31.1(D)9From the Jungle Jim, you will be able to see the rest rooms and a nice white fence off to the right. Walking along side the fence will put you on the trail. You might say, “Hi” to the horses. They are very social creatures. When you arrive at the above coordinates, count the number of poles supporting the structure. Divide that number by two (F). While you are there, count the number of trees in the clearing with a diameter greater than a foot. Do not count any at the edges. You should have an odd number (G).N40 33.74(F)W089 31.1(E)8When you arrive at these coordinates you will be looking at an incredible white oak tree. According to the park district, this is the oldest tree in Tazewell County. In 1976 this was designated as the Bicentennial Tree of Tazewell County. At some point it was struck by lightning but has been nursed back to health by the combined efforts of the Pekin Park District and the DNR. Locate the branch that is closest to the ground. Determine to the nearest foot the distance from the bottom of the branch to the ground (it’s an even number) You won't need a tape measure. We used a five foot tall person to guesstimate.(H).From the tree head west for .14 miles and you will be near a tower supporting power lines. You don’t need to go onto private property for this part. Count the strands of barbed wire that are wrapped around the tower to keep people from climbing it (I). N40 33.8(I)5W089 31.21(H)You should find yourself on a wooden foot bridge. Look under the bridge and count the number of poles spanning the creek. Multiply this number by 1.125 (J).N40 33.(G)95W089 31.12(J)You now have the coordinates of the cache. This is a micro cache, it contains only a log and a Geocoin for the first finder so bring your own writing implement. Please handle this cache with care. Try to return it as you found it to keep the difficulty level a five.

Mac Gyver's "JUST DROP IN"dirty dog duodirty dog duoTraditional CacheMicro21United StatesIllinoisMac Gyver and Magellan here. As a kid I loved to create problems and try to come up with every possible way to solve them. Of course, this greatly prepared me for the unexpected that I often faced as a secret agent. I loved to drop things down into places then figure out how to retrieve them the hard way. Once I dropped a large paperclip down a laundry chute. I could look down the chute and see it so I tied a magnet to a long string and lowered the string. About half way down the magnet slipped off the string. Lesson #1: Always make sure your knots are tight! So now I had to retrieve the magnet as well. Lesson #2: Always carry something to retrieve a magnet.
As all good geocachers know, having the proper equipment in the knapsack is essential. The more Magellan and I go geocaching the more things we pick up along the way and add to our bag of resources. Things like a pen or pencil (I prefer a pen in the summer and a pencil in the winter), string, I love the camouflage string but any old string will do, paper towels comes in very handy, stealth (this may not actually be in your bag but is quite important when people are around) I have used all of these while caching, and some not in the ways you might think. But none the less, all have been extremely important to the success of some caching adventures.
Check your gear and see if you have what's needed to be successful on this expedition. And remember, always prepare for caching adventure!
WARNING: To claim this cache as a find you must sign the log sheet and email us with what Mac Gyver skills you used. Finding the cache but failing to sign the log will not be considered a valid find!
Special thanks to the Morton Park District for permission to place this cache at this location and with this style of placement

BYOP
Enjoy the new Washington Recreation Trail by traveling to this cache! We suggest picking up the trail at the trail head at coordinates N40deg 42.320, W089 24.613. Picking up the trail at this coordinate will take you through a beautiful shaded stretch, and then a small ride through a neighborhood before picking up the trail again, at coordinates N40 42.458, N089 24.622. We suggest downloading the map PDF on the link in the 'Related URL' section. Overall, the ride to the cache will be a tad bit over 2 miles.
However, if you MUST, the cache is also very easily accessed via a very short walk from a road.

The Morton Puzzle 1, 2, 3, and Final series is a group of caches that will take you back to years before computers and hand held games. Yes, you will need your GPS unit to find the cache locations but before you turn your unit on get out your number two pencil and eraser.
All caches are on Morton Park District Land.
Your goal should be to visit Morton Puzzle Series, log your visits, and use the clues to help you along the way. The clues in each cache are a series of numbers and arrows. These numbers and arrows must be used in the attached 15 Puzzle. If you are not familiar with the game it is suggested that you use the web to understand how this games works before setting out on your journey.
It is highly recommended that you do this series in order as the clues are designed to help you progress on your journey.
Bring your own pen or pencil and paper to record the clues you find along the way. The cache containers get progressively larger on at least one of the dimensions (length, width, or height). The first one is larger than a film canister. 1, 2 & 3 contain no trading items. The final large container is stuffed full of puzzles and games. Bring a small puzzle, game, crossword etc. to trade as the theme of this series is puzzles. The first one to find this cache will be rewarded with a special old/new game to remember this cache by.
The above coordinates are for parking. Solve the attached puzzle to locate the cache coordinates.

This one will require some hiking in challenging terrain so come prepared with good shoes, water, bug spray, gloves and so on. This cache is not designed to be easy.Locating may be difficult so hone up on your “finding” skills. The cache is on the ground. There is only enough room for a logbook or travel bug should you wish to leave one. A compass for the last 60 feet may prove helpful. Please close properly to ensure it stays weather proofed and replace with care so it stays in place. Decrypt hint on site if needed. DO NOT access Robinson Park through the Boy Scout Camp! While on this hunt you will discover some improvements being made to the park that will benefit the hobby. Also, take advantage of the other caches in the area while on this trek.
*Side Note* This park is home to a few rarely seen pileated woodpeckers so take a few moments to look for them.North bank-hollow tree base-uphillGC1VAX411 Years & counting by ahill14+Wags11 (3/1.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=0884bdea-bf71-48d5-b2e7-8ea95810d28411 Years & counting by ahill14+Wags11GeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse011YearsC2011-11-11GC1VAX4false0

Punched cards received a bit of media attention a few years back when Florida had a little problem with "hanging chad" in the 2000 Presidential election, but in the early days of mainframe computers, they were the main instrument of input for both programs and data.<font face="Verdana" size="2"><font face="Verdana" color="#0000ff" size="4"> Why can't I ever find
anything? <br>
</font></font></span>It's no fun getting old! Watching a
football game at the U of I, I always comment on the baton
twirler. At my age, I couldn't do that. I'd flip the baton
into the air, forget where I'd put it, and it would hit me in the head!<br>
<br>
So that's how I lost my box of spare computer parts. Just forgot
where I put it! Good news is, I did think about this years
ago. Many years ago. I remember the day, isn't that
funny? I was sitting at the keypunch, coding in a Fortran
program. Didn't have a pencil with me, so I just keyed in the
coordinates for the location of the box. Worked fine.
Punched the correct little holes in the card so it could be read by an
IBM mainframe computer. 80 characters of letters, numbers, and
punctuation per card. Each character coded into twelve possible
punch locations in a vertical column. Just took one card, no
problem. But more important to me, it printed the characters
along the top of the card so I could read them. Latitude and
longitude and an identifying comment. What more could I
need? Still have the card. Had it stored in the
basement. Yeah, under the pipe that started leaking water a
couple of years ago. That brings me to the bad news. The
moisture from the pipe faded the printed characters. Not a trace
of them left. Wouldn't be a problem if I could find an old card
reader and an IBM mainframe, but what are the chances of that?<br>
<br>
Well, I started thinking. Hey, I don't need a card reader!
I can look at the punches! This isn't rocket science. Is
it? There has to be a pattern here or the computer couldn't read
them. But what's the pattern?<br>
<br>
If my memory weren't so bad, maybe I could remember how these things
work. I do remember a little history. The standard IBM
punched card, originally invented by Herman Hollerith, was first used
for vital statistics tabulation by the New York City Board of Health
and several states. After Hollerith had perfected his first
series of electromechanical punched-card machines, including a punch, a
tabulating machine to accumulate statistics from the information
punched on cards, and a sorting machine, he founded a company,
originally the Tabulating Machine Corporation. As with many high-tech
startups of today, it had a somewhat rocky start until an experienced
manager entered the scene. Thomas Watson, previously working for NCR,
took over. One of Watson's moves was to rename the company
International Business Machines. You know the rest.<br>
<br>
I'll bet the web has some clues. Gotta be careful, though, because web
histories might discuss many different punch card formats. I'm
sure this card is plain old IBM EBCDIC, so don't get confused by
Remington Rand information or any of the others. I did find one
picture of a card at <a href="http://www.columbia.edu/acis/history/cards.html">http://www.columbia.edu/acis/history/cards.html</a>
on the Colombia University website. Maybe it could be used
as a kind of "Rosetta Stone" to figure out what my card says. The
characters at the top are sure easier to read than mine after the water
damage! There are some neat links there, too, maybe some of them
lead to a chart or something that would make it even easier, but I'm
sure if I just studied this example I could figure it out. I do
remember that the top three rows are called X, Y and 0 (X and Y are
usually not labeled, but 0 often is), and are used as a kind of "shift"
so that rows 1-9 can cover all the letters. Can't remember how
they did numbers, though. Seems like they were a little
different. Punctuation I know used several holes.<br>
<br>
Anyway, I'm getting tired, and I just don't have the energy to figure
this out right now. I need a nap! But before I go, I'll
scan in my card. Maybe someone can help me find my box of
parts! I may have left some of my marbles in the box, but that's
OK; if you find it, you can trade anything you want.<br>
<br>
Just remembered something! Red letter day! What was
it? Something about bushwhacking. Ah, yes.
None. Not needed. You wouldn't expect a geezer to put
something where he had to bushwhack, would you? Besides, this is
a fragile ecology. Cache in, trash out, don't start no
mudslides. Park at the coordinates given, keep to the well
maintained trail, it's a loop, about 0.2 mi either way.Not buried, but below trail level. Find trail

Washington, Illinois POW CampCacherJohannStfRonOtherRegular31United StatesIllinoisNote: This cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. Read on to solve the puzzle...This is the second in a series of caches designed to show you historical sights in northern Tazewell county, Illinois.
See http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=67124
for the first cache in this series.
If you are at the posted coordinates, you should be outside the entrance to the "old canning factory", as it is known in local legend.
Currently the site is owned by a private company that refinishes railroad car wheels (please stay outside the fence; the cache isn't in there!)
Back in 1943, the canning factory (which after the war was run by the Libby's company) had a shortage of workers, and the government needed K rations and canned goods to feed the troops.
The solution was to bring in 50 captured German soldiers from the POW camp known as Camp Ellis in Fulton County (see http://www.fultoncountytourism.org/ellis.html ). The Washington sub-camp was first commanded by Colonel John S. Sullivan, and later by Captain T. A. Cox.
Captain Cox at one point in the war commanded the 1613th Service Command Unit, detachment 5 guarding German POW's at the Mayo hospital in Galesburg. (see http://www.geocities.com/readyreliable/powdetachment.html ).
The POWs were brought in on the old rail line that ran down Wood Street (the foundation of a sentry tower can be seen just northeast of the intersection of Wood and Jefferson near the entrance to the bike trail; no, the cache isn't in the foundation!).
They were trucked from the camp to various local farms to help with the pumpkin harvest. Once a POW jumped from a truck going down South Main Street and was almost shot before the guard realized he was just trying to retrieve his hat which had blown off.
The prisoners were allowed no visitors, nor could residents speak to the prisoners. An exception was made for local ministers, such as Pastor Kammeyer from St. Mark's Lutheran who spoke fluent German and ministered to the POWs spiritual needs.
Years later when the Libby plant burned, they found a U.S. Army rifle issued to a soldier who was a guard. It was reported missing, and suspected hidden by a prisoner.
What other hidden treasures might be left over from the POW camp? My own research has uncovered an old handwritten document, on which was scratched:
nildzurhincudvuueeoelvwnetwuhnzineuirrgiekideltgweknnjdnreitarslnrertfzevuarpdcetaeaipfnwn
I was able to decode this message using the number on the sign near the given coordinates with the word "Danger" on it, and found a hidden treasure. Can you do the same?
More history about the Washington POW camp can be found at the Washington Historical Society at 105 Zinser Place off Main Street (N 40 deg 42.264 W 089 deg 24.451)
(see http://www.tazewell.k12.il.us/district52/Historical/washington_history.htm )
For more information on German POW's in the US, see http://home.arcor.de/kriegsgefangene/
Thanks to the powers that be for permission to place this cache where it is!
Additional WaypointsThe cache container is a ten inch by ten inch by three inch tupperware box with the word "GEOCACHE" written on its lid in black marker.
If you’re stumped, take a deep breath and count to ten: ein, zwei, drei, vier, fuenf, sechs, sieben, acht, neun, zehn

<p>Use your GPSr to guide you to the posted coordinates. Walk
slowly and quietly as you near the target. I would suggest putting
your receiver in your pocket when you get to the last twenty feet.
This will allow you to focus on the surroundings instead of staring
at a screen.</p>
<p>At this point, you should have spotted the cobra. BE VERY STILL
and take a few minutes to catch your breath. It is powerful and
dangerous, but you should be safe.</p>
<p>Get in as close as you dare without crossing the protective
barrier and circle this killing machine. You won't be able to stop
yourself from staring at the awe inspiring fangs capable of
shooting a venomous sting into the heart of its prey.</p>
<p>You'll want to stop when you are directly in front of the nose
of this beast. Turn to face it head on. Stare into its dark cold
glassy eyes only momentarily. Don't be intimidated. Instead, close
your eyes and let yourself enter into the world of the cobra.</p>
<p>Reach deep into your soul to feel the lives of everyone that has
crossed paths with this cobra and others just like it. Penetrate
beyond the superficial movie scenes of the cobra attacking its
prey. Try to touch the FEAR, the SORROW, the ADMIRATION, and the
HONOR of those whose lives were changed by the cobra. When you
finally have it in your heart, open your eyes.</p>
<p>Notice that the cobra is no longer looking at you. Instead, it
seems transfixed on something behind you. Turn around to see the
object that holds such power. You'll immediately notice that this
is no small thing. It towers proudly above you into the sky. It may
be difficult to not bow your head and lower your gaze back down to
ground from which this object came. This would probably be an
appropriate time to kneel as a sign of respect and take a moment to
be thankful.</p>
<p>There is one last thing before your get up. Lift the base of
this object carefully without scratching anything and retrieve the
cache.</p>
<p>In time, you'll forget about this cache.</p>
<p><u>PLEASE</u>…just don't ever forget what it represents.</p>

The cache is an ammo box and there is a special prize for the first-to-find should you be so lucky. Please take the time to ensure the can is closed properly to keep it weather proof. DO NOT access Robinson Park through the Boy Scout Camp! Robinson Park is a gem and you will discover some improvements being made which will be of benefit to those who like to hike in great surroundings. While on this hunt, take advantage of the other caches in the area.
*Side Note* This park is home to a few rarely seen pileated woodpeckers so take a few moments to look for them.tree base on spurGCH9CYWalter Mitty Safari by Jeepster (2/1)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GCH9CYWalter Mitty Safari by JeepsterGeocache FoundGeocache|Other|Foundfalsefalsefalsefalse2004-04-09false0WalterMi2011-11-11GCH9CYfalse0

Walter Mitty SafariJeepsterJeepsterOtherMicro21United StatesIllinoisI've been a very busy lately, so I asked my friend Walter Mitty to help me place a cache. This is the result of his work. If you've never been introduced to Walter, you might want to read some of his other adventures before striking out on this cache hunt. The story titled, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, might give you a good understanding of my friend.
Thanks to the local tribal leaders for allowing the placement of this cache.
THE SAFARI
Parking is available near the various trails leading into this dangerous area. Please use extreme caution while traversing the desert plains surrounding the heavily wooded area in which the cache is hidden. Although generally peaceful, cougars and jaguars have been heard growling on the plains. Also, vipers and cobras have been spotted in the area. Thus, constant vigilance is required to maintain life and limb. Plan your approach carefully, since there are only four viable approaches to the wooded area.
Once in the wooded area, a large wall will generally protect you from the circling danger. Earlier this year one of the larger and more dangerous species did try to break through the wall on the south side; the wall, although heavily damaged, did maintain the safety of the wooded area. Repairs on the wall have now been complete.
Since it is an extremely long hike across the plains and through the woods, food and water should be carried along. Although water can be located in the area during the summer months, it seems to be sacred to one of the local tribes. The tribe that dresses in blue has been known to capture and detain those who stray into the sacred waters. Several other tribes have been known to frequent this area … just maintain a friendly demeanor and you should be safe.
Step A: Proceed to the coordinates posted at the top of the page and locate a large concrete marker commemorating past sacrifices. Take the first year noted on the marker (x.xxx) and add it to 40° 40.345' to obtain the latitude for step B. Take the second year (x.xxx) on the marker and add it to 089° 22.519' to obtain the longitude for step B. Proceed as safely as possible to the location for Step B.
Step B: At the location for step B, you will see a totem pole of signs written in a long lost native language. I haven't been able to understand the hieroglyphics on the totem pole, however through a great effort, I was able to decipher a rather large number on the second sign from the top. Multiply that number by five and add the resulting number (0.xxx) to the following longitude and latitude to obtain the coordinates for Step C. 40° 42.079 and 089° 24.285. If you are still of sound mind and body, proceed with great stealth to the location for Step C.
Step C: If you have survived the various perils thrown your direction so far, you are one of the lucky few. You must now search diligently at this location for the large crystal container that holds the holy grail. Be very careful that no one observes you and understands the purpose of your search. This container has lain unobserved for eons, so extreme care must be taken while handling it. Once you have located it, sign the elusive logbook while paying homage to those who have cheated death to show you the way. Replace the crystal container with care and begin your journey back to civilization.
Your friend,
Walter MittyIf the cache holds on tight, it should not be afficted with moss.2004-04-09T07:00:00ZFound itkorey99Thanks for a fun hunt!

Heyl Pony TrailCacherJohannCacherJohannOtherMicro32United StatesIllinoisLike all multi-caches, the cache is not at the posted coordinates. Read on...This cache is the third in a series designed to show you historical sites in northern Tazewell County, Illinois. The other two are:
Purple Breasted Chickadee http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=67124
and
Washington, Illinois POW Camp
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=94012
In the 1920's, a man named George Heyl put Washington on the map as the home of the famous Heyl Pony Farm; the posted coordinates should take you to the sidewalk in front of the Old Heyl House, where you can see some of the orginal barns still. Please stay off this historic but private property; the cache is not there!
The Heyl Pony Farm supplied Shetland ponies to buyers around the world; George Heyl also raised pure bred poultry. When George Heyl died suddenly in 1932, it was recorded as one of the largest funerals ever held in Washington.
There is more good information about George Heyl at the Washington Historical Society at 105 Zinser Place off Main Street (N 40 deg 42.264 W 089 deg 24.451)
(see http://www.tazewell.k12.il.us/district52/Historical/washington_history.htm )
The obituary of George's son Harley is online at:
http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/il/tazewell/obits/hhheyl.txt
The land to the west of your current location (across Main Street) was all Heyl pastureland orignally. The Heyl Family sold much of this land to the city in the 1960's, forming Washington Park.
So take yourself back in time to the 1920's, put yourself in the riding boots of George's son Harley, saddle up your two wheeled mechanical pony, and go out for a ride in the pasture! Don't forget your calculator...
All of the waypoints are prefixed with N40 degrees and W089 degrees; use the clues below to find the cache:
Waypoint A
Location: 42.707 24.432
A = The address of the former Heyl house (3 digits)

The Cache
Location: North = 0.814+(N+G)/F
West = -1.866+(A+C+G+N)/(B+D+E+F+H+I+J+K+L+M)
Math note:
I am using standard operation precedence in the above equations:
- Parenthesis
- Exponent
- Multiplication
- Division
- Addition
- Subtraction
In other words, an equation like:
0.028+(L-K)*D+H+B/E
should be interpreted as:
0.028+((L-K)*D)+H+(B/E)
Also, always round the answer to the nearest 3 decimal places.
The cache container is the size of a deck of cards, so don't plan on putting very much in it!
Thanks to the property owener for permission to place the cache where it is.
Happy caching!Basically, you should search the area until you see the light!GC1RQC9Stump Up by BaillieHunters (1/2)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=0e380ad1-c219-40d2-9874-9651ddf201a2Stump Up by BaillieHuntersGeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0StumpUp2011-11-11GC1RQC9false0

Woody WoodzillaVictor VectorVictor VectorTraditional CacheRegular23United StatesIllinoisI gave this a middling terrain rating because it depends where you access this area. It could be a #3 or a #4.5. Coords are averaged because of the canopy. You can find newly-built wooden stairs at roughly N40.49.883 / W089.35.630 which will make the descent toward the creek easier if you approach from the south.Placed in Robinson Park with Peoria Park Dist. permission.
The cache is a 30 cal. ammo can charged with misc goodies (some for kids too) and completely hidden from view----you have to move something to see it. This area of the park is particularly scenic with steep ravines on either side of this very long and level east/west ridge that has a path running its length----very easy walking on the ridge. This is the only area nearby where I see pileated woodpeckers----they’re literally the size of a crow (see attached photo)! Get on the Internet and listen to their call, you’re certain to hear at least one out there. With a large, pointed crest on their head, they look just like Woody Woodpecker (for those of you who are old enough to remember that cartoon bird).
Enjoy

1.Geocache is placed on Department managed property with permission.
2. Do not place the following items in the Geocache: Food items, inappropriate, offensive or hazardous materials.
3. It is the visitor’s responsibility to orient themselves with policies and rules pertaining to this Department managed site.
You can park in a small lot located on Fox Rd. at the entrance to the south edge of the camping/hiking area that’s marked “Kickapoo Creek Access Area”. This area is especially good for easy hiking for young and old alike with nicely mowed wide trails. If you haven’t visited this part of the park it’s well worth doing so. This is a small cylinder a bit larger than a film cannister with only a log strip inside so bring a pen/pencil. Please replace the container as found. EnjoyVery close to the grassy mowed trail.

This is a very nice camping area, but apparently used rarely-----I've never seen anyone with a tent or gear there. The closest access is from the small parking lot on Fox Rd. and will take about 15 min to walk or bike in. Very little bushwhacking is involved. Cache is a small container with a log sheet and a coin. Bring pen/pencil. Because of the trees I had to average the cords so it will be close as possible.

BoRBdirty dog duodirty dog duoTraditional CacheOther11.5United StatesIllinoisWe recently accomplished the 99 BoB caches scattered around suburban Chicago. It's said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery so we decided to hide a similar cache downstate. For those who have done BoB, this will bring back memories. For those who haven't, it might wet your appetite to accept the challenge. To get the full affect you might want to read the BoB story at "BoB 99" Waypoint: GCKMBQ.
Our story continues with BoRB, the One and Only. In amongst the 99 bottles of beer that BoB, the Village Idiot, had hidden for his friends was one more bottle, a single bottle of root beer. Not wanting to leave anyone out, BoB hid this bottle of root beer for the village's designated driver.
Make sure that you cache with a PENCIL OR MARKER in your hand for this one, there's no need to stray off of public land!
Keep your wits sharp as you search for what's hidden,
and remember that railroad tracks are forbidden.
Be wary, or you'll find your hunting cut short
by Muggles who catch you and ruin our sport.
And if you are short, you might wish to be tall
as you hunt for our Bottle of Root Beer on the Wall.
Under no circumstances should cache hunters sign anything except for the actual cache log sheet. Signatures or stickers found on anything other than an actual cache log sheet may result in online "Found it" log deletion for the cache.

Lucky CharmsTwoEaglesTwoEaglesMulti-cacheLarge4.53.5United StatesIllinoisDo you know what a Leprechaun is? Have you ever seen one? Leprechaun sightings are rare, as they are usually solitary creatures by nature. In appearance a Leprechaun takes the form of a diminutive old man, always bearded and are usually pipe smokers. They are often detected, though not easily seen, by the rhythmic tapping of their cobbler's hammers as they go about their work in the forest making shoes. You may have heard a Leprechaun at work and thought it to be only a woodpecker! Well, what we saw on a sunny day at the park certainly looked like just such a creature! As our vehicle pulled into the parking lot we saw a very funny looking little man, about two feet tall, with pointed ears, running across the dam. As we got out of the car we saw him run up the hill and vanish under a bush and into the woods. Noticing his wide-brimmed hat and brightly colored vest and jacket we knew it could only be a Leprechaun. Knowing the legend of the Leprechaun and his elusive pot of gold we decided to take up the challenge and follow him. Leprechauns take extra care to hide the location of their valuable pot of gold and will reveal that location only if caught and under extreme duress. Of course, Leprechauns are mischievious with a great zeal for playing tricks and practical jokes as we soon found out! As you retrace our exact steps we hope you enjoy the search for the pot of gold as much as we did. Remember - a completed rainbow eventually gets you to the pot of gold.

Rock Island Trail BridgeVictor VectorVictor VectorTraditional CacheSmall2.51United StatesIllinoisHidden in plain sight.This is a small canister located on the Rock Island Trail at the bridge that spans Kickapoo Creek. This is one of the most scenic sites on the RI Trail because the bridge is high above the creek with resting benches at both ends. Use stealth when retrieving this cache because this bridge is a place where hikers (and many kids) stop for a rest and take in the view and you can see as many as a dozen people at one time there. There is no reason to leave the publicly-accessible portion of the trail---no bushwhacking or fence crossing. Permission was granted to place this cache from the IL Department of Natural Resources. Bring a pen/pencil since only a small log strip is in the canister (don’t need tweezers for this one). If you’re familiar with a new residential development under construction on Cedar Hills Drv near the creek, you can park much closer to this cache.
1. Geocache is placed on Department managed property with permission.
2. Do not place the following items in the Geocache: Food items,inappropriate,offensive, or hazardous materials.
3. It is the visitors responsibility or orient themselves with policies and rules pertaining to this Department managed site.

The coordinates shown are for a small, public parking lot beside a roadway. The cache container is slightly larger than a pack of cigarettes. It contains only a log sheet---bring pen/pencil and a compass (such as a Silva) because you'll need one to locate this cache.Once at the parking lot you'll find a blue sign with historical information on it that you may find interesting.
To find the cache you must first note the year (a four digit number) at the bottom of the sign beneath all the text. From this year subtract 1,803. What's left is the magnetic heading in degrees you must walk from immediately behind the sign for 27 paces which will put you very close to the cache.

<p><strong>A Little Park History for a Little Park</strong></p>
<p>In 1943, Clyde and Nellie Jackson moved into a house on River
Beach Drive in the small town of Rome, Illinois. Across the street
from the house was Illinois River beachfront. The beachfront,
ravaged by the occasional river floods, was gnarled with brush.
Clyde gave Nellie his vow that he'd turn the beachfront into a park
and name it after her.</p>
<p>Clyde and Nellie had four children to feed. They couldn't afford
to clear the land and haul in fill dirt to raise the ground up away
from the river. Nellie passed away in 1972. They had been married
just 50 years. Clyde again vowed to build the park.</p>
<p>With help from friends and fill dirt from the new Mossville
plant Caterpillar was building, a quarter-acre park came to be.
Clyde erected a sign, 'Nellie M. Jackson Lakeview Park.' Clyde had
fulfilled his vow.</p>
<p>Little has changed in this park. Now there are a couple of shade
trees and some picnic tables with benches. There is a new engraved
rock that reads 'Nellie M. Jackson Lakeview Park – Chillicothe Park
District.'</p>

<p>This cache is placed with permission of the Chillicothe Park
District. The park closes at 10:30 pm. You don't have to leave the

<p>Here in central Illinois you will find evidence of glacial
activity from may years ago. This esker is not very big compared to
eskers found up in the northern states like Wisconsin and Michigan.
The hilltop you are standing on is part of the Shelbyville Moraine.
The hilltop is shaped like a finger tip or spur. If the esker was
seen from above by a airplane you would notice the spur shape in
the land formation. The soil is sandy with loose gravel and rocks
called glacial till. The larger rocks are erratics. If all of the
trees where to be cut down, what you would see is a hill top with
long ridgelines heading in a northwest direction.</p>
<p>Around 15,000 years ago, the last of the glaciers was pushing
through the area of Peoria, Illinois. During this time, massive
amounts of debri accumulated in front of the glaciers and was
glacial run off created this esker. Eskers are often irregular in
shape and can be wide or narrow. This esker is part of one the
largest Moraines in Illinois.</p>

<p>An esker is a long, winding ridge of stratified sand and gravel,
examples of which occur in glaciated and formerly glaciated regions
of North America. Eskers are frequently several miles in length
and, because of their peculiar uniform shape, somewhat resemble
railroad embankments.</p>
<p>Most eskers are believed to form in ice-walled tunnels by
streams which flowed within and under glaciers. After the retaining
ice walls melt away, stream deposits remain as long winding ridges.
Eskers may also form above glaciers by accumulation of sediment in
supraglacial channels, in crevasses, in linear zones between
stagnant blocks, or in narrow embayments at glacier margins. Eskers
form near the terminal zone of glaciers, where the ice is not
moving as fast and is relatively thin.

border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p>
<p>The rate of plastic flow and melting of the basal ice determines
the size and shape of the subglacial tunnel. This in turn
determines the shape, composition and structure of an esker. Eskers
may exist as a single channel, or may be part of a branching system
with tributary eskers. They are not often found as continuous
ridges, but have gaps that separate the winding segments. The ridge
crests of eskers are not usually level for very long, and are
generally knobby. Eskers may be broad-crested or sharp-crested with
steep sides. They can reach several miles in length.</p>
<p>The concentration of rock debris in the ice and the rate at
which sediment is delivered to the tunnel by melting and from
upstream transport determines the amount of sediment in an esker.
The sediment generally consists of coarse-grained, water-laid sand
and gravel, although gravelly loam may be found where the rock
debris is rich in clay. This sediment is stratified and sorted, and
usually consists of pebble/cobble-sized material with occasional
boulders. Bedding may be irregular but is almost always present,
and cross-bedding is common.</p>

<p>This is an typical kame that can be found all along the Illinois
River Valley. These go unnoticed by most who travel along the Coon
Creek road. The Kame is called Lone Hill and has a very old
cemetery on top of it. It is viewable during the Fall and Winter
months This is just a part of our Ice Age geological history in
Central Illinois.</p>
<p>Coon Creek Kame is a glacial kame, or a cone-shaped hill of
gravel formed as the glacier melted. A kame is formed at an
intersection of ice crevices as water, carrying gravel from on top
of the glacier, drains through the crevice. This kame was left
behind with the melting of the llinois glacial episode thousands of
years ago.</p>
<p>This particular kame occurs in the Illinois river Valley that is
found covering much of the south eastern part of Peoria, Illinois.
This area where glaciers stabilize for an extended length of time,
also includes a variety of other glacial features the most obvious
moraine that extend from Bloomington, Illiois.</p>

border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a>
<p>Aside from being a hill out in the open, kames can also serve as
sand and gravel resources. Many of the local gravel pits owe their
existence to kames.</p>
<p>Coon Creek Kame is a geological feature, an irregularly shaped
hill or mound composed of sand, gravel and till that accumulates in
a depression on a retreating glacier, and is then deposited on the
land surface with further melting of the glacier. Kames are often
associated with kettles, and this is referred to as kame and kettle
topography.
<a href="http://s21.photobucket.com/albums/b290/cavscout0711/?action=view&current=IMG_2854.jpg"

border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p>
<p>With the melting of the glacier, streams carry sediment to
glacial lakes, building kame deltas on top of the ice. However,
with the continuous melting of the glacier, the kame delta
eventually collapses on to the land surface, furthering the "kame
and kettle" topography.</p>
<p>Kame terraces are frequently found along the side of a glacial
valley and are the deposits of meltwater streams flowing between
the ice and the adjacent valley side. These kame terraces tend to
look like long flat benches, with a lot of pits on the surface made
by kettles. They tend to slope downvalley with gradients similar to
the glacier surface along which they formed, and can sometimes be
found paired on opposite sides of a valley.</p>
<p>To get credit for this EC, post a photo of you (I do not accept
pictures of just a hand)with the Coon Creek Kame in the background
and please answer the following questions.</p>
<p>1. How long is the Kame?</p>
<p>2. What is the elevation at the posted coordinates?</p>

1.Geocache is placed on Department managed property with permission.
2. Do not place the following items in the Geocache: Food items, inappropriate, offensive or hazardous materials.
3. It is the visitor's responsibility to orient themselves with policies and rules pertaining to this Department managed site.You can take-a-load-off in the shade at this site. The RI Trail foot/bike traffic north of Dunlap is sparse as compared to the area between Alta & Dunlap so you'll likely be alone here. The coords are averaged because of the satellite-eating trees---they should be close though. At low light a flashlight would be handy.

The park closes at 10:30pm.All coordinates used in this multi-cache are given in the form decimal minutes. They are to be used with N40 54.nnn and W89 29.nnn.

In this cache you find the information necessary to help you complete your hunt.<p>Notes: <br>1. You don't have to get wet to find this cache - it isn't located in the river (or the pool).<br>2. Stay off of private property. There is no need to leave park property to find this cache.<br>3. Just to keep it fun, I didn't label which decimal minutes are longitude and which are latitude. <br>4.

library in 1914. In 1916 they received a $10,000 grant from the
Carnegie Foundation to construct a building to house their library
collection. The building was opened in 1917. Today, this building
still stands at the corner of Second and Walnut streets, downtown
Chillicothe.</p>
<p>In June 2004, the Chillicothe Public Libary, which had out-grown
the nearly 90 year building, moved to a new facility near the high
school. Since then, a used bookstore has moved into this stately
old building. The proprietors of Waxwing Books have graciously
allowed the placement of this cache on their property.</p>
<p><strong>Please note:</strong></p>

Route 90's Dead End RoadLuckycacherjohnLuckycacherjohnTraditional CacheMicro11.5United StatesIllinoisThis cache is located along a dead end road along Route 90. It should be a simple park and grab. It appears Anderson road used to travel across the railroad tracks to Obertley road and further. Now it is barricaded at the tracks. This road is rarely used with the exception of the railroad maintance crews.
You will need a pen or pencil to sign the log. You are searching for a traditional micro cache. This cache could be a little more difficult to retrieve after rain or now. Please rehide the container carefully.
The recommended parking is on the dead end road along route 90. Since the road is seldom used parking on the dead end road is fine. The parking coordinates are

It's Coffee Time AgainmicahwillimicahwilliTraditional CacheRegular21.5United StatesIllinoisThis cache is in a very nice park in Goodfield. There's no need to go through anyone's yard to get to the cache. However there is a little bushwhacking required, please watch out for ivy. I was also told there were ticks around the site/park. ewwww! The park is closed from 10pm to 5am. Thanks to the Goodfield Village Board for granting permission to place this cache, Cache in Trash out.This Cache is a revision of a former Geocache at this park called "Coffee Time" GCK5HZ, That got taken or destroyed or whatever. If you're one of the 20 cachers that got to do the last one, then you'll know the drill.
This is a coffee cache, the original contents include: coffee (In individual packets). Besides that there is one more unique thing about this cache, there are TWO log books. One for those of you that drink coffee, and one for those who don't. Each log entry has a short survey that I would like all participants to take, about... coffee. I will post the results of this survey on this site, when I maintain the cache to put in more coffee. I am not naive enough to think that prospective cachers will have individually sealed coffee packets to put in the container, but it’d be nice to try to keep it as related as possible, just for fun. Have a good time.GCHFZ5Bridges of Tazewell County #1 by Weengers (3/1)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GCHFZ5Bridges of Tazewell County #1 by WeengersGeocacheGeocache|Otherfalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0Bridges12011-11-11GCHFZ5false0

The Old Man CachepattytrackerpattytrackerTraditional CacheRegular1.51.5United StatesIllinoisThis cache is place on Marshall County Conservation Land with permission by the IDNR Park Ranger . Please follow the IDNR rules as as lined out here. 1. Do not place the following items in the Geocache: Food items, inappropriate, offensive, or hazardous materials. 2. It is the visitors responsibility to orient themselves with policies and rules pertaining to this Department managed site.The hardest thing about this cache may be trying to find the correct spot to park so you don't have to bushwack your way onto the trails, so I will be very nice and give those coordinates to you. We found the best place to park at North Forty degrees, Fifty seven point Three seven four minutes and West Zero eighty nine degrees, Twenty five point One six nine minutes. There is more than one trail that will get you where you need to go to find this cache. The easist is the terrain difficulty posted on this cache page. The other trail is shorter but you will need to bushwack more and get across a creek. We found a spot to get across without getting wet feet but it was slick. I would give that trail a one half point higher difficulty. This is a traditional cache that is family friendy. I have included trade items for all ages and sexes. I hope you have fun here. You will have a good chance to see some wildlfe while in the park too.

Visit this web site for forest map and information. http://dnr.state.il.us/lands/landmgt/PARKS/R4/sand.htmSand Ridge is likely the most unusual forest on earth, considering it was once a desert. This delicate eco-system supports a vast variety of plants included enough pine trees to allow limited logging.
The cache is an ammo box located near a watering hole – another unusual occurrence for a desert. Best parking is at 40 degrees, 24.518 minutes and –089 degrees, 52.557 minutes. Take marked trails and fire roads (no vehicles allow) most of the way. Walking is a little hard due to the sand. Hunting is allowed here so don’t be stupid, the hunters know where animals go to get water so don't sneak up on them!Plan on getting sand in your shoes.2004-09-19T07:00:00ZDidn't find itkorey99In the park for a quick backpacking overnight and stopped to look for this cache. I must have had the coordinates wrong, because my GPS led me write into the center of the convergence of several trails, with no cache or watering hole in sight.

The Erractic RockCav Scout, Platinum Earthcache MasterCav ScoutEarthcacheNot chosen1.51.5United StatesIllinoisSmall boulder located along country road. Boulder can be seen on the side of the road. No need to walk onto property to see the rock.Glaciers form during climatic episodes when more snow accumulates during the winter than melts away during the summer; over time the snow thickens and under the pressure of its own weight is compressed into ice and begins to flow outward. During warm intervals, glacier ice melts and the glaciers recede (melt back). During cold intervals, more snow accumulates than melts and the glaciers advance. Rocks and soil frozen in the base of the glacier are dragged along. These materials can act like sandpaper to smooth the landscape over which the glacier passes. This abrasion can smooth the face of rocks and round out hills. It can also gouge out valleys. On some exposed rock surfaces you can find evidence of this glacial scouring in the form of glacial striations (parallel lines carved into the rock).
Like rivers, glaciers tend to follow the path of least resistance. The glaciers that flowed into the northern United States from Canada during the Ice Age followed the courses of former river valleys that were eroded into the least resistant rocks. The glaciers gouged out rock from the base and sides of these valleys creating the troughs occupied today by the Great Lakes.
When glaciers melt, they leave behind whatever they were carrying. This may consist of a mixture of rock debris and old soils, called till, material that was ground-up and deposited from the base of the glacier. Some of the most striking reminders that the landscape was once covered by glaciers are boulders and cobbles, called erratics, that dot the landscape. Unlike the rock you find in local quarries, these are exotic rocks. In Illinois, erratics are often granitic rocks like those you would find today hundreds of miles away in Canada.
Glacial meltwaters carried ground-up rock debris away from the glaciers. In the valleys of major meltwater channels, like the Mississippi and Illinois valleys, this debris settled out as layers of silt, sand, and gravel, called outwash. On dry, windy days, the finest particles of this outwash were blown across the landscape in glacial dust storms. These particles settled across the landscape to form a blanket of silt-size particles, called loess. Loess forms the basis of the young, rich soils of the northern plains of the United States.
All around central Illinois you can find large and small boulders on farm property and around the family homes of Illinois. The boulders are used to mark property boundries, decorate yards, block trails or roads, or pushed to the side of a field to keep the boulders from causing damage to the plows on farm equipment. The boulders you see are whats left behind by prehistoric glaciers that once covered this area. Most of the boulders are made of granite from areas as far away as Canada.
How big is the boulder?

Bike the RockdustystardustystarOtherRegular23United StatesIllinoisThis multi cache is intended to be searched for via bicycle. It utilizes the Rock Island State Trail and features the refurbished bridge across the Spoon River. Expect about a 2 hour/12 mile excursion.Parking is near the posted first location and each stop will give you new coords and a clue for the final location. Bring a pencil to take notes. After 10 clues, you will have directions for the actual cache, which is a 5 qt container filled with the usual goodies and log book. Most clues are easy to find, some are a bit nasty.
While you may walk this route or drive-park-walk, the fastest and easiest way is by bike. No horses or motor driven transport allowed on the trail. The trail is not all weather so rain and snow will create a much more difficult hunt. Water and restrooms are available most of the time. Trail hours are dawn to dusk.
This cache is registered with the Rock Island State Trail and conforms with all regulations.HINT: Each clue is written on the same type of material.GC1W8W1Milan-Sanremo: Dandy Horse Quest by MutherAndSun (1.5/2)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=c60bfad3-d861-4b26-85cf-d0763df2168bMilan-Sanremo: Dandy Horse Quest by MutherAndSunGeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0MilanSan2011-11-11GC1W8W1false0

On The PrairieLuckycacherjohnLuckycacherjohnTraditional CacheMicro12United StatesIllinoisThis cache is located in a rest area along Route 40 (Formerly Route 88). The rest area has a few, nice, sheltered picnic tables. The edges are covered with tall prairie grass and a few trees. There is plenty of parking and space to walk your dog or rest. However, there are no facilities. Truck drivers often use the area for rest, lunch, and sleep.
It should be a short walk to a fairly simple find. Walking through a little tall grass might be required. You will need a pen or pencil to sign the log. You are searching for a traditional micro cache. Please rehide the cache container carefully.
The recommended parking is at the middle of the rest area. The coordinates are

PEORIA BILL'S 2000TH CACHE TRIBUTECIGA/gossamargossamarTraditional CacheMicro22United StatesIllinoisCIGA presents PEORIA BILL'S honorary 2000th cache tribute. Our
counterparts to the north started this tradition of placing special
caches to mark milestones within the geocaching community. We
thought it was a good idea and so here is the cache. I have been
caching with Bill for almost 2-years now and each time we go out it
is or turns out to be an adventure in some sort of weird way. I
think that our first outing together was the infamous "BOB" series
in Chicago and the rest as we say is history. So here is to you Mr.
Peoria Bill and all that you bring the the geocaching community!!
<p>The cache is a bridge cache along a county blacktop. I know how
much Bill likes these caches, so I figured we would give him one
more. But this is a special bridge because it is located along "Old
Peoria Road"..how fitting.</p>
<p>There is no real good parking near the cache site(hence the 2
rating) and the road can be busy at times so USE CAUTION WHEN
RETRIEVING THIS CACHE!!!</p>

Access trail.<b>PLEASE NOTE (Updated 9/20/2006):</b> Parts Evergreen
Lake/COMLARA Park will be closed to general use during the archery
Deer Hunt, October 1 though November 11.
<p>And now, back to your regularly scheduled cache...</p>
<p>My last cache on this end of the lake has gone missing and this
is one to replace it. I hope this one sticks around a while longer!
Parking can be found at N40 38.116, W89 01.349. The cache is just
under a quarter of a mile, as the crow flies, from the parking area
but a little over 8 tenths of a mile by the trails, if you take the
long way (right after the bridge, this is the recommended route).
The short way (left/straight) will come to a bit over a third of a
mile but you miss some nice scenery. It's an easy hike on well
marked, mown trails and a good area to get a view of the lake, Deer
Island and to bird watch. The area has been pretty heavy with ticks
so dress accordingly; long pants, long shirt and a hat! The cache
is a smallish, regular cache and big items may not fit.</p>
<p><b>NOTE</b>: be sure to put the lid together as you find it (you
don't need to take it all the way apart) and don't be afraid to
tighten it down a bit.</p>

Tid Bits:
Evergreen Lake's main water feed comes from Six Mile Creek and first empties into Six Mile Bay. You can trace some of these creek all the way back to Pipeline Road. If you follow Veterans Parkway (Business 55) directly North without getting on the highway the road becomes Pipeline Rd. Look around the area where E. Ziebarth Rd crosses Pipeline Rd. You can trace this on Google Maps at a zoom level where the scale show a 1,000 feet.
On this day that I placed this caches with my 8 year old son, it was after a couple of weeks of 3-4 inches of rain each week. Though the sun was out on this day, rain water was running down from the fields and sure tons down Six Mile Creek. Parts of the trail was under water from the Lake edge and high lake water level. Water was up near the top of my sons boots while standing in the middle of what was a grassy trail. The trail later took us across a rock bridge in which water was also running through. You have to hit the trails on the other side of this rock bridge to get to this geocache. Should be fun for kids like mine that like to play in the water.
Initial Contents: Only includes a log book and some seal envelopes for a Poker Run that are not trade items.

Both are located within walking distance of each other (and next to the car). The GPS signal is very strong in this location, so you should be able to get very close.
The cache is located in Henry, which is the location of the very first lock and dam in Illinois.
http://www.piperspages.com/Marshall/HenryLock.html
You must find the microcache to get credit. Obtaining a photo on the WebCam is optional. The webcam is located within 100 ft of this cache.
You will find instructions on the location and web site URL for this camera on a laminated sheet in the cache. With a partner's help, you position yourself under the camera and call your friend to have them take a picture of you using the website listed at the cache site. You can then upload your photo to the geocaching web site as part of logging your find.
Note Added June 14, 2005
As stated in the description, taking a picture is optional and finding the hidden cache will be given full credit. However, I’m noticing that several people are only posting notes and not receiving credit. Because this is classified as a WebCam Cache, users probably need to log the find as a “Web Cam Photo Taken”. I don’t have Administrator privileges to change the log and can only delete those that are inappropriate. You should be able to go into the edit section and change your log. Sorry for the confusion.

Notes: I would like to thank the Bloomington Normal Parks department for letting me place this cache. Please reseal lid on cache to keep it nice and dry and please try and hide it at least as good as the way you found it. Parking is available at N40 30.877 W089 01.309. Please use this designated parking. Cache is about .6 miles from this parking area. Just take off down the sidewalk and stay on the north side of the pines until you are in the open. It is up to you then. No bush wacking or creek jumping involved if you take the right trail. Good luck.
For those of you who attended the ICACHE Geo-Picnic you should know the area.
This cache maybe a good place for travel bugs to stay on their journey.
Additional notes: Please practice CITO. The trails have been cleaned up a lot since I was last here and makes for a nice stroll now. Please help keep it this way. Please keep me informed on the condition of the cache. I want to make this one of the nicer finds in the area and will restock as necessary.

Before 1984 US-51 was the primary route of travel for motorists
traveling north and south from Bloomington to Rockford, IL. Many
roads crisscrossed 51 and many small towns flourished along the
route. Things soon changed and the roads and small towns were soon
cut off from the new Interstate. <br />
<br />
This series is a tribute to the roads and towns that are now cut
off by Interstate 39. <br />

Interstate 39 (I-39) runs from Normal, Illinois to Rothschild,
Wisconsin. In <b>Illinois</b>, Interstate 39 runs from its southern
terminus at Interstate 55 in Normal to the state boarder near South
Beloit, a length of 145 miles. <br />
<br />
Interstate 39 is primarily used as a long-distance bypass for
commercial vehicles around Chicago and was built in the 1980s and
1990s. <br />
<br />
<b><u>Interstate 39 shares part of the longest triple interstate
multiplex in the country, where Interstate 39, Interstate 90, and
Interstate 94 share pavement between Madison and Portage.</u></b>
This connection forms the 29-mile “triple multiplex” (I-39/90/94) —
one of only two triple concurrences on the Interstate system, and
by far the longer of the two (I-55/64/70 in St. Louis, MO and East
St. Louis, IL is three miles long) <br />

<ul>
<li>1984 - Interstate 39 from U.S. 20 near Rockford to Illinois 5
near Rochelle was opened.</li>
<li>1986 - Interstate 39 extended from Illinois 5 to Interstate
80.</li>
<li>December 1987 - the section from Interstate 80 south, across
the Illinois River, was opened and its southern terminus was
Illinois 251 (old U.S. 51). It was not open from Illinois 251 to
Illinois 71. At one mile in length, the bridge is the longest in
Illinois. It is named the Abraham Lincoln Memorial Bridge.</li>
<li>Late 1988 - construction began on the interchange with
Interstate 55 in Bloomington</li>
<li>Summer of 1990 - Interstate 55 was reconstructed around Normal
to handle an additional lane of traffic. The existing interchange
of U.S. 51 and Interstate 55 was closed completely and then
reconstructed with its present configuration. Bridge work continued
for the overpasses between Normal and Oglesby. The section from
Oglesby to Normal contains a unique style of overpass construction
that allowed for the elimination of the center pier. U.S. 51 was
rerouted onto the Interstate 55/74 bypass around
Bloomington-Normal, and the main route through town was designated
as Business U.S. 51 (AASHTO action taken to establish Business U.S.
51 on June 2, 1990.)</li>
<li>Summer/Fall of 1991 - segments of the new highway were opened
south to Illinois 18.</li>
<li>Spring/Summer 1992 - more segments of the road were opened to
traffic</li>
<li>Fall 1992 - final segment of Interstate 39 opened, completing
the entire freeway from Rockford to Bloomington. Illinois 251
extends on most of the old U.S. 51; some minor rerouting was
necessary because the new four-lane highway was built on top of the
two-lane road. It is interesting to note that Illinois 251
terminates just north of Normal, while a four-lane "Business U.S.
51" was constructed over the old U.S. 51 for several miles north of
Normal. There is a gap of several miles between the two. It is not
known why Illinois 251 and Business U.S. 51 were not connected in
some manner.</li></ul>

Interstate 39 in Illinois</center>
<br />
<ul>
<li>October 22, 1993 - Interstate 39 extension to Wisconsin
approved by AASHTO.</li>
<li>Mid-1995 - rest areas were opened on both sides of Interstate
39 between Rockford and LaSalle (Interstate 80). Prior to this
time, "phantom exits" were built to illustrate where the actual
ramps would be. Also, before the rest areas opened, "Truck Pull-Off
Areas" existed on both sides of the highway several miles north of
the rest areas. These are now closed and have since been fenced off
to prevent access.</li>
<li>1998-1999 - Interstate 39 extended again, this time into
Wisconsin. Signage was placed first on the U.S. 51 freeway from
Portage north to Wausau, and co-signage with Interstates 90 and 94
was added thereafter. The 1999 Rand McNally was the first atlas to
show Interstate 39 along these routes through Illinois and
Wisconsin.</li>
<li>2003-2004 - At the Interstate 39/90 interchange in Rockford
(Cherry Valley Interchange), the southbound toll was eliminated in
December 2003, and the toll booth was torn down. The northbound
toll was eliminated in November 2004, but the toll booth
remains.</li>
<li>April 17, 2003 - E.J. 'Zeke' Giorgi Highway designated along
Interstate 39 between Interstate 88 (Ronald Reagan East-West
Tollway) and the Illinois-Wisconsin State Line. Representative Zeke
Giorgi pushed for the construction of Interstate 39 through
Northern Illinois.</li></ul>

Heading north along the Eisenhower Interstate System</center>
<br />
<br />
Interstate 39 has replaced U.S. 51 for almost its entire length,
except for the section it shares with Interstate 90 between
Rockford and Portage. Interstate 39 is cosigned with at least one
other route for its entire length. <br />
<br />
It is this replacement that has created the theme and home for each
of the caches in this series. When Interstate 39 was built, many
existing roads which previously intersected with US-51 had to be
cut off and dead ended in order to create the unabridged roadway.

This is a nice hide to search for in the night time hours. When
there is a full moon out you won't even need a flashlight or maybe
even your GPS. Take time to enjoy the old roads and just know that
there used to be a day when things were not rushing like the road
in front of you, but moving slowly like you. <br />

There's something for all ages.About the size of Cool Whip tubs, you'll love finding and playing the game associated with this series of SIX caches. (Listed separately as MusiCache BLM 1-6)
The originally placed CD is part of a contest! If you find that disk and are the FIRST to identify the cuts on it, you will win the coordinates to find a $5 Starbuck’s Gift Card. And if you are the FIRST to find all SIX of our Bloomington area MusiCaches and can identify what ALL SIX CDs have in common, you will win coordinates to a $20 Starbuck’s Gift Card.
Here’s how you play:
• Take this CD and replace it in the cache with one of your own.
• Listen to the CD and e-mail us the CUT TITLE and ARTIST of each cut on this CD. (jkers10@yahoo.com)
• If you are the first to get all the answers correct, YOU WIN. We’ll send you the coordinates to a $5 Starbucks Gift Card.
• IF YOU WIN – Keep this CD as a souvenir.
• IF YOU DO NOT WIN – PLEASE TAKE THE CD, THE DIRECTIONS AND THE BAG BACK TO THE CACHE WHERE YOU FOUND IT.
We want to always keep a CD to trade in the cache. And we want someone to win all six of the MusiCaches challenges. And it would be REALLY cool if someone could identify the common thread between all six MusiCaches and win the $20 Starbucks Gift Card.Don't pine away, enjoy the park.GCJAMNFirst Flight! by Den 7 Scouts (Zonie) (2/1.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=37297989-07be-47e7-9195-32665e058332First Flight! by Den 7 Scouts (Zonie)GeocacheGeocache|Multi-cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0FirstFli2011-11-11GCJAMNfalse0

First Flight!Den 7 Scouts (Zonie)ZonieMulti-cacheRegular21.5United StatesIllinoisThis cache is located along the north end of the Constitution trail and is easily accessible from I-55, I-74, or I-39. (For out-of-town visitors; the Constitution trail is a "Rails-to-Trails" project with approximately 25 miles of trails throughout the Bloomington-Normal community.)This cache was placed by a group of eight & nine year old Cub Scouts, or GeoScouts as they now prefer to be called. The name of the cache is significant for two reasons:
1. This is the first cache we've hidden.
2. You'll find out when you get there.
We hope you'll have as much fun finding it as we had planning and hiding it! The original contents include all sorts of scout type things including fishing lures, a hockey puck, basketball net, Yu-Gi-Oh! cards (Okay, not scout related but definitely 8-9 year old related), Boy's Life Magazine, two travel bugs, and other items. We would like to maintain this theme if possible.
Parking is available within a few feet of the initial coordinates, where you will find a large historic marker. Few people are aware of facts inscribed on this marker, and it’s fun to imagine what the area must have looked and sounded like so long ago.
This is a pretty straightforward multi-cache. There are no riddles to solve or guesswork involved. The cache is approximately 1/4 mile from the parking area. There are two dates on the marker. Use the dates to complete the coordinates for the cache. xxxx – xxxx
A= The second digit in both dates.
B= The third digit in the first date.
C= The third digit in the second date.

You are looking for a medium-sized Tupperware container, appropriately camouflaged. The Scouts took great pride in concealing the cache. Please return the favor for the next person.

A letterbox has been placed a couple of feet from this cache. I believe this is the same box that used to be under the west end of the Constitution Trail bridge where it crosses Linden.
I received a note a couple of months ago from another cacher that it was here and he was trying to adopt it. I don't know if that has taken place yet but the letterbox is still here for now. Check it out, and stamp your logbook if you have one.One, Two, Buckle my shoe,

Triple Whammy #1Ma n PaMa n PaUnknown CacheSmall4.51.5United StatesIllinoisThe above coordinates are FALSE. The real coordinates are to be
deciphered from the code below. The cache is a vitamin pill
container, placed in a city park.I. First, you must click on the link to a Doodle Pad photo with all
the scribbling on it. <a rel="nofollow" href=
"http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b383/manpageo/594e2a69.jpg">Doodle
Pad Link.</a> Then you need to search for an object hidden in the
scribbling, and find:<br>
<br>
<p>1. The name of the hidden object (a compound word with no
spaces.)<br>
2. The number of circular holes in the object. (N1)<br>
3. The number of letters in the word under the object. (N2)</p>
<p>For some of you, this may prove to be difficult. If, after
searching the scribbling for some time, your eyes seem to glaze
over and you begin to stare past the Doodle Pad as if in a trance,
this is normal. In fact, you are making progress at this point.
Your eyes should diverge until they mysteriously see a 3D image. If
unsuccessful, ask a friend to help. You may even have to print a
copy on paper.</p>
<p>II. Second, you must decipher the following children’s
Tic-Tac-Toe code.</p>

<p>1. To continue, write down the letters represented by the above
substitution code. It will not make sense yet because there are
more operations to do.<br>
2. Take the result just obtained and decipher it again by a simple
substitution method, using an alphabet shift of (N2) to the left or
to the right, we‘ll let you work out that answer.<br>
3. Finally, decipher that result by using a type of Vigenere
Tableau with the exception that the rows are shifted by (N1)
characters to the right instead of one to the left. The key is the
name of the hidden object.</p>
<p>III. Go for the cache.</p>
<p>1. Enter the coordinates into your GPSr: N 40° 29.XXX and W 089°
00.XXX,<br>
2. Gather all your geocaching gear and companions,<br>
3. Select your method of transportation and go geocaching.</p>

Down Therewvhillbilly59wvhillbilly59Traditional CacheSmall23.5United StatesIllinoisPark at north end of Constitution Trail and you will have about .30 miles to walk to get to the cache. There may be closer parking but the nearby businesses may object. This would be an excellent cache to get very close to by riding a bicycle on the trail running only a few feet from it.
Also, the trail leading to it is closed after dark anyway.
Go to the posted cache coordinates, which will get you to within several feet of the cache. Then, follow the clue in the title about 20 feet to the east because the leaf cover wouldn't allow me to cl

To the west of the Constitution Trail, there is a small wooded area with long grass just south of Northtown Road. The cache is at the base of a medium sized tree. Being in woods might have thrown off the longitudal coordinate. The trees aren't dense, so leaping from one tree to the next is a breeze.

fetched science fiction television series of “Star Trek”<br>
made its debut. By the 1980’s Dr. Mark Okrand had developed an<br>
artificial language for the Klingons, arch enemies of the
Federation.<br>
In this cache, you will be required to change Klingon into
English<br>
for the coordinates with the on-line Klingon script.<br>
Make a copy of the ten Klingon digits for use in the field to
locate the final.<br>
Below, you will find what could have been one of the strange
scenarios<br>
of the once popular television show.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana" size="3" color="black">A red light began
pulsating rapidly on the console of the USS<br>
Enterprise, flagship of the Federation of Free Nation Planets.<br>
Ms. Uhura, Communication Specialist, reached up and turned<br>
the hot com switch to the automatic exchange position. The
caller’s<br>
identity illuminated the screen, and indicated an urgent
message<br>
from the President of the Federation.</font></p>
<p>“Mr. President. This is an honor,” Ms. Uhura greeted him in
awe.</p>
<p>“Ms. Uhura,” began the President, “I must speak with<br>
Captain Kirk as soon as possible.” His image on the softly
glowing<br>
screen appeared somber and grave.</p>
<p>“Sir, he is with Mr. Spock on the Planet Emiqwees for the<br>
5000th anniversary ceremony. I’ll call him immediately.” She
deftly<br>
reached for the personal contactor and pressed number one.</p>
<p>Captain Kirk and Spock were sitting on the platform behind<br>
the introductory speaker at the Great Hall auditorium when the<br>
captain’s personal contactor began vibrating in his pocket.</p>
<p>“Who could be calling me at this inopportune moment?” he<br>
thought. Carefully, he held the communication device to his
ear<br>
and pressed the receive button.</p>
<p>Spock turned his gaze toward the captain and saw his face<br>
turn pale as he rose from his seat. The audience hushed as the<br>
captain put his hand on the speaker’s shoulder and softly spoke<br>
into his ear.</p>
<p>As the captain and Spock quickly left the auditorium,<br>
the speaker announced, “Please excuse Captain Kirk and Mr.
Spock.<br>
We have just learned that the original “Declaration of
Federation”<br>
document has been stolen !</p>
<p>Shortly afterward, when the captain and Spock had been<br>
beamed back aboard the USS Enterprise, an inquiry was made into<br>
the details of the theft and a broad search was begun to
determine<br>
who the culprits were. All evidence and witness reports pointed
to<br>
the Klingons as the masterminds behind the theft. A law
enforcement<br>
ship was launched in pursuit of what appeared to be a Klingon
Bird<br>
of Prey ship in the area of the museum, when the fleeing vessel<br>
suddenly disappeared. The nature of the slip gave rise to the<br>
speculation that the Klingons warped into another time
dimension<br>
in order to make good their escape.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, a partial communication in the Klingon language<br>
was intercepted around the time of the chase and copies were
sent<br>
to all of the Federation member planets in the hope that
someone<br>
would be able to translate the tricky script to determine it’s
relevance.</p>
<p>All efforts proved fruitless.</p>
<p>Special teams were then warped into the past and copies of<br>
the Klingon communication were published in certain books in
such<br>
a manner as to not disturb the course of events but with the
hope<br>
that someone would eventually come along who would discover the<br>
script and work at it until they made sense of the writing and
search<br>
for the “Declaration of Federation” to keep it preserved for
future<br>
generations.</p>
<p>One of those books was found recently on our own 21st
century<br>
Earth. If you would like to try your hand at finding the document,
you<br>
can begin by trying to translate part of the writing, a copy of
which<br>
can be seen via the link to the photo below.</p>
<p>Caution: If the sprinklers are on at the park, come back later.
Sometimes,<br>
they mess up the sprinkler schedule which usually operates at
night.</p>

This park becomes very busy at time, espically in the summer time. Please be very aware of your surroundings and watch out for muggles. I made point to try and hide you from two points of view, but was not able to completely hide people while grabbing this one.
There is ample parking next to the cache location and handicapped parking as well.

Wand</font></p>
<p>Once upon a time, there lived, in a beautiful little flower<br>
garden, in the middle of the city, a wee tiny Fairy with<br>
wings so delicate, they would hum a charming melody<br>
as she flew from flower to flower. She was quite happy.</p>
<p>One day, she awakened to discover that her Magic Wand<br>
was missing and without it, she could no longer fly. She<br>
could no longer taste the sweet nectar of her beautiful<br>
flowers. Perhaps one of the little animals near the garden<br>
carried off her Magic Wand thinking it was a morsel of food<br>
to be stored for the winter. Of all the animals that she asked,<br>
none knew what had become of her Wand. However, the<br>
little rabbit was willing to offer his assistance.</p>
<p>First, the young rabbit filled his tummy with yummy, yummy<br>
clover, of the large lavender type that the bees love to visit.<br>
Then he sat up on his long thumpers, sniffing the air to try<br>
to pick up the scent of the Wand, which had been hand made<br>
from one of the tall Cedars of Lebanon. As he turned around<br>
and around, his puffy white tail skimmed the tops of the
grass,<br>
tickling him so that he had to chuckle now and then. With his<br>
little wiggling nose, he detected a faint indication of the<br>
direction he should go.</p>
<p>So, he said good-by to the wee tiny Fairy and hopped off<br>
towards the slight but pleasant aroma of Cedar. The October<br>
sun had reached its high point for the day but still caused the<br>
trees to cast a shadow long enough for Mr. Cricket to sit in<br>
the soft moss that grows on the shady side of the tree trunk.<br>
Although he could no longer see him, he knew where the<br>
young rabbit had gone. A very warm breeze, unusual for this<br>
time of year, made him glad he had some cool moss to<br>
comfort him.</p>
<p>After six and a half minutes, the rabbit came to a third
street.<br>
After looking both ways, he crossed the street and suddenly<br>
stopped. A voice from the nearby grass said,<br>
“Mr. Rabbit. Why are you shaking? Are you afraid?”</p>
<p>“Yes,” replied the rabbit. “I’m on a mission to find the<br>
Fairy’s Magic Wand, but, I’m afraid of slopes and I can’t go<br>
down there.”</p>
<p>“Oh, I’m not afraid of a little slope,” said the turtle
boldly.<br>
“I’ll go down there for you.” So, the turtle set off in the
same<br>
general direction, feeling very pleased with himself. After<br>
forty-six and a half minutes, the turtle stopped. A very<br>
worried expression appeared on his face.</p>
<p>A tiny voice spoke up just then and said, “Mr. Turtle. Why<br>
are you shaking? Are you afraid?”</p>
<p>“Yes,” answered the turtle. “I’m on a mission for the
rabbit,<br>
who is on a mission to find the Fairy’s Magic Wand, but, I’m<br>
afraid I’ll fall into one of these slots that cross my path. I<br>
can’t get beyond them.”</p>
<p>“Oh, I’m not afraid of those slots,” said the ant. “I’ll go
on<br>
across for you. No Problem!” So, the ant continued the<br>
journey in the same general direction until he became very,<br>
very tired. He had been walking for 4.85 hours, the sun had<br>
already set, and he just wanted to curl up into a ball and
sleep.</p>
<p>A quiet voice whispered to the sleepy ant, “Why are you<br>
curled into a ball? Are you afraid?”</p>
<p>“Oh, no,” called out the ant slowly. And with the remaining<br>
tiny bit of energy left in him, he explained, slurring his
words,<br>
“I’m on a mission for the turtle, who is on a mission for the<br>
rabbit, who is on a mission to find the Fairy’s Magic Wand,<br>
and I’m just too tired to go on.”</p>
<p>“Well,” announced the glowworm, who was visiting from<br>
Europe. I’ll go on for you. I’m not tired at all.” But the ant<br>
didn’t hear him, for he was already asleep. Now, the<br>
glowworm set off in a different direction, and, with the help<br>
of his glowing light, after sixteen and a half minutes he found<br>
the Fairy’s Magic Wand where Mr. Chipmunk had been<br>
storing things for the winter. However, it was more than he<br>
could carry, and he needs your assistance.</p>
You must solve the puzzle for the co-ordinates of the Fairy’s <br>
garden. (See the link to the picture below). In the garden area,
<br>
you will find a micro with a list of the rates of travel for each
<br>
of the critters in the story. Then sit down with your pencil <br>
(or calculator) and perform a little magic of your own.<br>

This is a small cache but will hold several coins, a log and a pencil. Please bring more foreign coins to trade or geocoins. Room for a few geocoins. Please try to bring a coin of some kind along, preferably foreign or odd, like a wheat penny or some such, so this cache will continue to have a theme of coins, whether goe or regular. You should be able to drive to within a few of feet from it. You could probably reach it from the car if you knew where it was. You may have to let your GPSr settle down from the partial tree cover before getting a good reading. And, by the way, you don't have to get into the nearby poison ivy unless you just want to.
PLEASE carefully rehide it at least as well as it is already hidden. When I checked it once for maintenance, it could be seen from many feet away.
BENCHMARK ALERT:There is a benchmark LC1031, about 460 feet from this cache but its not for the lighthearted and not for children or pets. It's on the edge of a railroad bridge. Safest way to get to it would probably be to walk to it from the side of the bridge nearest this cache.

Here’s how you play:
• Take this CD and replace it in the cache with one of your own.
• Listen to the CD and e-mail us the CUT TITLE and ARTIST of each cut on this CD. (jkers10@yahoo.com)
• If you are the first to get all the answers correct, YOU WIN. We’ll send you the coordinates to a $5 Starbucks Gift Card.
• IF YOU WIN – Keep this CD as a souvenir.
• IF YOU DO NOT WIN – PLEASE TAKE THE CD, THE DIRECTIONS AND THE BAG BACK TO THE CACHE WHERE YOU FOUND IT.
We want to always keep a CD to trade in the cache. And we want someone to win all six of the MusiCaches challenges. And it would be REALLY cool if someone could identify the common thread between all six MusiCaches and win the $20 Starbucks Gift Card.We're from the BBQ capital of the world but this is not under a slab of ribs.GC278NMIn the Middle by Doug (1.5/1.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=b8ae724f-1356-470d-a4d9-5f03c39f6ec4In the Middle by DougGeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0InTheMil2011-11-11GC278NMfalse0

This is placed in front of a business with permission. But, don't go in and ask for clues or get in the way of their business while searching or I'll have to remove it. Often there is a lot of muggle traffic in the area, too. So, be very discreet and careful of muggles.
It is in a container large enough to put small items and TBs or geocoins in. Has a coin in it to begin with, too.
The cords are slightly off because of the building so close to GZ. Try looking at the nearest building.

park.</p><p>We recently learned about Sudoku puzzles after reading an
article in LIFE. Sudoku (pronounced sue-doe-koo), is essentially a
highly addictive numbers game minus the math. It’s popular for
three reasons: (1) The game is easy to explain but challenging to
play; (2) it’s different – unlike most newspaper puzzles, it’s a
game of logic rather than words; and (3) it doesn’t depend on a
specific language – or your grade in high school algebra.

Sudoku difficulty scale of 1 to 4, with 4 being the most difficult,

Bring your own writing device.This cache is near where there has been at least one previous cache. That one was muggled very quickly. The previous cache owner gave up but, I'm going to try again. Hence, the name. There are lots of muggles around so you need to be very wary of them. Good way to explain you are where the cache is would be to take your digital camera and pretend you're a nature photographer taking pictures.
Please rewrap the log and replace the rubber band to keep it dry. I've noticed a lot of damp logs lately.
This only has log, pencil and small TB in it for now. Container suitable for small TBs or small geocoins or regular coins.
You'll have to be off the trail only a little ways. Take one of the established trails through the wooded area to very close to the cache instead of bushwacking directly through the briars, unless you like that sort of thing.
This is just down the trail from an easily spotted Benchmark, LC0685. So, you should grab that one while you're in the area.

4H - HeadJustJaneJustJaneTraditional CacheSmall1.51.5United StatesIllinoisThis cache was placed as part of a 4-H geocaching event."I Pledge my Head to clearer thinking,
my Heart to greater loyalty,
my Hands to larger service,
and my Health to better living,
for my club, my community, my country, and my world."
The 4-H Story
4-H didn't really start in one time or place. It began around the start of the 20th century in the work of several people in different parts of the United States who were concerned about young people.
The seed of the 4-H idea of practical and “hands-on” learning came from the desire to make public school education more connected to country life. Early programs tied both public and private resources together for the purpose of helping rural youth.
During this time, researchers at experiment stations of the land-grant college system and USDA saw that adults in the farming community did not readily accept new agricultural discoveries. But, educators found that youth would "experiment" with these new ideas and then share their experiences and successes with the adults.
So rural youth programs became a way to introduce new agriculture technology to the adults. A.B. Graham started one such youth program in Ohio in 1902. It is considered the birth of the 4-H program in the U.S. When Congress created the Cooperative Extension Service at USDA in 1914, it included boys' and girls' club work. This soon became known as 4-H clubs - Head, Heart, Hands, and Health.
Nearing its 50th anniversary, 4-H began to undergo several changes. In 1948, a group of American young people went to Europe, and a group of Europeans came to the United States on the first International Farm Youth Exchange. Since then, thousands of young people have participated in 4-H out-of-state trips and international exchanges. 4-H began to extend into urban areas in the 1950's.
Later, the basic 4-H focus became the personal growth of the member. Life skills development was built into 4-H projects, activities and events to help youth become contributing, productive, self-directed members of society. The organization changed in the 1960's, combining 4-H groups divided by gender or race into a single integrated program.

This should be an easy cache to find. The terrain is pretty easy -
you may need to walk up a small incline, but should not be much of
a problem.This is my second cache. It is hidden inside an old 8-track
cartridge. I collect 8-tracks and use the tapes I don't like for
caches. I left log book and pencil. It will be interesting to see
if it gets muggled or not...GC1VADFRelax for awhile... by DL10 (3/1.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=76e54691-b730-42a1-9d53-af5100756668Relax for awhile... by DL10GeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0RelaxFor2011-11-11GC1VADFfalse0

Another Constitution Trail cache-new cordswvhillbilly59wvhillbilly59Traditional CacheMicro11United StatesIllinoisNEW LOCATION: Because this was muggled so soon, I've relocated it about 12 feet from the original location. As you stand facing the location indicated as ground zero on your GPSr, locate a tall black pole. Stand in the middle of the trail, facing the pole. Now, turn about 180 degrees and walk about 6-8 feet away from the tall pole. You will be almost within reaching distance of the relocated cache.
This is in a relatively new place on the Constitution Trail in Bloomington that I think needs a cache. There are none others near it that I know of. If you know of any, please let me know. It is a micro cache with only a log in it. You'll have to take your own writing instrument to sign the log.
IF you look back over your shoulder you will see where a nationally known snack food is produced. If you are interested in Benchmarks, there is one that is pretty easy to find near the other end of the tunnel.GCY4A1PigWig by GAAK (1.5/1.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=8b27dd9f-35c2-4b48-8934-63c4b292f20ePigWig by GAAKGeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0PigWig2011-11-11GCY4A1false0

again.<br>
<br>
Once upon a time there was a man named Jim. Jim like to play polo.
But alas in his little town there were not any horses let alone a
polo field. So Jim got himself a couple of 2X4's and made a saw
horse. Now Jim sits on his horse day in and day out with a Croquet
mallot pretending he is playing polo. One day a friend came over
and wanted to play also. He and Jim went to their local hardware
store and purchased some more 2X4's. Jim made another horse. Now
Jim and his friend sit on the horses together. One day Jim's friend
showed up with a horse made of 2X6's. Jim was jealous because his
friend now had a bigger horse. So....Jim went and purchased some
2X12's and some lag bolts. Jim made a giant horse. He even made the
horse so it could be taken apart for storage. To store the horse
and his other polo material Jim bought a big metal container. Jim
uses the big container for many things. Sometime he even uses the
metal container to hide small objects under.<br>

Terrain's pretty simple but a little 'branchy.'About the size of Cool Whip tubs, you'll love finding and playing the game associated with this series of SIX caches. (Listed separately as MusiCache BLM 1-6)
The originally placed CD is part of a contest! If you find that disk and are the FIRST to identify the cuts on it, you will win the coordinates to find a $5 Starbuck’s Gift Card. And if you are the FIRST to find all SIX of our Bloomington area MusiCaches and can identify what ALL SIX CDs have in common, you will win coordinates to a $20 Starbuck’s Gift Card.
Here’s how you play:
• Take this CD and replace it in the cache with one of your own.
• Listen to the CD and e-mail us the CUT TITLE and ARTIST of each cut on this CD. (jkers10@yahoo.com)
• If you are the first to get all the answers correct, YOU WIN. We’ll send you the coordinates to a $5 Starbucks Gift Card.
• IF YOU WIN – Keep this CD as a souvenir.
• IF YOU DO NOT WIN – PLEASE TAKE THE CD, THE DIRECTIONS AND THE BAG BACK TO THE CACHE WHERE YOU FOUND IT.
We want to always keep a CD to trade in the cache. And we want someone to win all six of the MusiCaches challenges. And it would be REALLY cool if someone could identify the common thread between all six MusiCaches and win the $20 Starbucks Gift Card.Thought we'd toss you a softball on this one.GC298A7The Pirate Wash Bay by j1m1th1ng (2/2.5)http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=40161a97-3d31-4a65-b7f5-0583279837e6The Pirate Wash Bay by j1m1th1ngGeocacheGeocache|Traditional Cachefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse0PirateWa2011-11-11GC298A7false0
