Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

Birds don't have pockets, so this is where they keep their spare change. Thus, this is a coin exchange type of cache.


Originally, contained in the cache were several “pressed” pennies, a couple of Disney collector coins, some foreign currency and a pair of oversized coins.

The cache container is a small one, but a couple of pens are included in the container. Please try and stick to the coin theme when selecting a trade item to leave. Geocoins and all Travelbugs are also welcome.


Turkey Hill Park

This cache is located in Turkey Hill Park. The park entrance and the parking lot are located directly off of Turkey Hill Road, just north of La Plata.

Park Facilities include; an off-leash exercise area for dogs (dog park), four soccer fields, two picnic pavilions, one volleyball court and a multi-purpose area for informal recreation activities. (Expansion of the parks facilities is currently ongoing.)

Turkey Hill Park is open from 8:00 A.M. until dusk.


UPDATE: 02-MAY-2007

If you remain within 50-75 feet of the pond near the cache you will certainly be on park property. The signage is present to discourage firearm hunters from illegally entering the park. If firearm hunters are spotted please report the activity to Charles County Parks at the number found on the signage as you enter the park or you can call: 301-870-2778.

Below is a graphic showing the location of the cache to the park’s property lines for reference.
