About this cache: The Gazebo on the Flats is a popular place for anglers to fish, and is designated as a "watchable wildlife" spot.  It is one of the locations noted on the AuSable Birding Trail map where you will likely find ducks, eagles, swans, and many, many other species of birds.  You are looking for a traditional lock-n-lock container, hidden in the usual way.
