Geocache Description:

This is one of ten caches placed for the 2006 Cache Across Maryland. Each location was picked specifically to give you a taste of the state and show you just a part of its beauty. By combining all ten, you'll be able to see why Maryland is truly "America in Miniature". We hope you enjoy them!

This 'Cache Across Maryland 2006' cache is hidden 'inside the beltway'. You'll find it in Indian Creek Park adjacent to Lake Artemesia.

Lake Artemesia Natural Area is highlighted by a 38-acre lake, an aquatic garden, good fishing, a handicapped accessible fishing pier, and more than two miles of hiker-biker trails which connect it to the Indian Creek Park, Calvert Road Park, and the grounds of the College Park Airport and Aviation Museum. Take the time to enjoy a walk around this beautiful lake & grounds, and don't forget to visit the aviation museum located not far from the cache.

A bit of trivia for you aviation buffs... The College Park Airport is the world's oldest continuously operated airport, and is the site of many significant aviation firsts. It was here in 1909 that Wilbur Wright trained the first two military officers to fly in the government's first aeroplane. The museum is open daily 10-5 and has a small admission fee.

Enjoy your visit 'Inside the Beltway'.
