Big Creek Stroll Multi-cache
Professor Shorthair: After thinking about it for a couple of weeks, I have decided to archive this one. When I hid the final, it was in a quite isolated area. Now there is a bike trail within a few feet of the hiding spot. And this is not the first time the final has disappeared. Stage one has been retrieved; this one is history. Thanks to everyone who hunted Big Creek Stroll.

A straightforward two-stage multicache which will lead you on a pleasant stroll of a mile and a half.
This multi is located in Big Creek Park in Roswell. There are several miles of trails through woods and wetlands in this park. The trails are popular with bicyclists, so watch out. The park opens one hour before sunrise and closes one hour after sunset. The gate is closed at that time, so don't get caught here after dark unless you want to walk home. I saw a deer while I was hiding the cache.
Stage one is a micro, and stage three is an ammo box. Stage one overlooks either a beautiful wetlands scene or a less attractive muddy view, depending on how much rain the area has had. Be careful retrieving this stage.
The final is in the woods, but not too far off the trail, so a little stealth might be needed. Watch for poison ivy at this stage. The cache is well covered and should remain that way. Please replace the low-tech flood control device when you re-hide the cache.
There are several other excellent caches in this park. You can hunt some of them between stages of this one.
Among the starting contents were a CD by my namesake, Professor Longhair, and a red Jeep travel bug.
FTF: DrPerp - congratulations!
