Geocache Description:

This FOUR-stage multi-cache is placed in Bird Hills Park by permission of the NAP division of Ann Arbor Parks. Originally placed by russianbear, taken over by victorymike, then A2QueenCacher, and is now maintanined by Smilch and 8_is_Enough.

NEW AND IMPROVED 9/15/06!!!

The original Bird Hills cache was located in an environmentally sensitive area and needed to be relocated. Also, critters had chewed a hole in the original container and it needed to be replaced. This cache is the result of efforts to refurbish and relocate the original Bird Hills Cache.

There are many entrances to Bird Hills park. The closest one to the first stage is located on Beechwood Drive...off of Sunset.

This is no longer a Sunday stroll. Although it is an easy hike on clear dirt trails you will cover about 1.5 miles of ground on your journey thru a beautifully wooded park on Ann Arbor's NW side (if you choose to do this cache alone). Stage one, two, and three are prescription bottles. Stage 1 is just off the trail and in a cool tree. And be sure to rehide it well so it doesn't get muggled. Stages 2 and 3 are located a little off the path, placed so you can look at the view of the Huron River. The final is a Gatorade bottle.

OLD CACHE INFO(Just for old time's sake!)- The cache is a large cylindrical Tupperware-like container blue. It's original contents were:

  • 1 Wild Wild West Sndtrk. cd,
  • 1 full bottle of Miracle Bubbles,
  • 1 digital Sport watch,
  • 1 Inscape shot glass,
  • 1 fake velvet ring box from Mervyn's (empty),
  • 1 3D Wild Wild West promotional button,
  • 1 full tube of OFF! Skintastic Magicolor Disappearing Purple insect reppellent,
  • 1 color slide of the Beer Depot in Ann Arbor that I took for a photography class,
