all while exploring what the outdoors has to offer. We<br />

hidden treasures. GPS units will be supplied, but feel<br />
free to bring your own. Be prepared for a two-hour hike<br />
with proper clothing, footwear, water and snacks. Feel<br />
free to bring some trinkets to trade in the geocaches<br />
we find.<br />
