Welcome to River Heritage Park, an often overlooked park located in Carmel, IN. For those of you with children, there is a small playground here. The overall distance you'll be traveling (round trip) is approximately .80 miles. You're certain to encounter poison ivy and during wetter times, standing water and mud in a couple locations. There's no need to leave the trail until the last 100 feet or so, assuming you get to the correct spot!
From the posted coordinates, you'll need to use your GPS unit to project a waypoint. Once you arrive at the waypoint, you'll be following a more traditional letterbox set of instructions to get you to the geocache. PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THE STAMP! IT IS NOT SWAG AND SHOULD REMAIN IN THE CACHE.
From the posted coordinates, project a waypoint 295 feet at a bearing of 96 degrees. You should be standing on the southeast corner of a 6x6 grid (it will make sense when you arrive). From here on, it's just me and the words guiding you along to the final. At this point, look east to see something that makes hikers smile, because we won't have to bushwhack. Follow this "thing" until it comes to an untraditional T. There are only two options here and you should take the one that leads to the right (south). Stay on this (it will turn to a different direction toward the river) for awhile until you see a blue plastic vertical marker on your right. Turn left (north) and then go down and then back up a somewhat rocky patch and continue following the "thing" as it runs parallel to the river. Not too far from the down and up (100 feet maybe), you'll run into a double trunked old osage orange tree that has old rusted metal fencing wrapped around it. There's a series of 11 osage orange trees along this old fence line, as you look back in the direction you just came from (south). You'll find the cache at the base of one of these osage orange trees. WATCH OUT FOR BARBED WIRE!
