A 3 stage Multicache off the Greenland Open Space Trail. Cache covers a total distance of about 1.75 miles.

We hope you have as much fun finding this cache as we did placing it today!

YOU WILL BE WADING. I am 6'2" and I was up to my knees. Dress and prepare your trip to this cache appropriately.

Good luck, and have fun!!

Thanks for this really fun Multi cache! I started this one nearly 2 years ago. I picked up the first couple stages, struggled with others and just took my time getting through it. I've been to the final at least 3 other times with no luck. I happened to notice a few weeks back that this one had been found this year! Whoa! There is hope! I arrived at the usual parking spot and made the short journey to the pond. All I can say is Ewwww!!!! Lol! Once in hand I signed the log and replaced it back to it's mucky resting spot. Well done as always for such a fun adventure and many miles of walking! Thanks so much!!! Love these epic journeys to the smile!

Finally! RPieperco and I have been to this spot a couple times. Not to mention repeating visits to the other waypoints. Today my daughter made it look so easy. Gladly signed the log. Thanks for another fun multi!

Ran by here (and by that I went very out of my way, lol) and replaced stage 2! Its the same as it was before. I also screwed up when printing the coords to the final so they're not right.. I'll put a note in the description. Go get it!

Taking down so I can go replace stage 2! Should be up soon!

This cache is now a premium-member only cache. Unfortunately, after having to replace all of my geocaches every year (except "Slender," which until now was my only premium cache), I've decided to make this cache exclusive to the people who are here to geocache for real. I take pride in hiding exciting geocaches that are different and fun to find, but I am forced to trust that people will handle the cache the right way. I understand that most people are good geocachers and follow the rules, but it really makes me mad when things are completely taken apart, not put back correctly, or flat-out destroyed because someone doesn't want to take the time to solve a puzzle or get a clue. I am sorry for this, but this has to be the way it is going to be from now on. It is too time consuming and expensive to fix all of my geocaches every year.
