Celebrating the NASA Mars 2020 mission that landed Perserverance in the Jezero Crater on 2/18/2021 to seek signs of life and collect samples for possible return to Earth. My 5 year old is obsessed with the Mars missons and loves geocaching so we decided to set one out to mark the successful Mars landing. He picked this spot and the tradeables inside.

The trail to Skinner Cabin is accessible and great for kids. This cache is a little off that beaten path, please mind the cryptobiotic soil.
