Geocache Description:

Next to the Spring Creek trail in NW Fort Collins is a ‘water wall’ and an interactive art feature.

This area was created through the collaboration of the Fort Collins Utilities Stormwater Quality Program, Art in Public Places and Poudre School District students and teachers for the young and the young at heart. Stop by and rest/play/learn while enjoying a day geocaching. If there are young ones with you during the summer months you will probably need to spend at least a little extra time here.

Discover the answers to the questions below and plug the values into this coordinate equation: N 40 33.BCF W 105 06.DAE

  • A =        How many panels make up the wall?
  • B =        Which panel represents the Cache LaPoudre River?
  • C =        Locate the plaque for the art dedicated in 2005. How many letters in the last name?
  • D =        Number of dragonflies minus number of birds on the panels.
  • E =        How many birds are depicted in the 2005 art structure?
  • F =        Locate the plaque for the art dedicated in 2002. How many letters in the last name?

The cache is a Sterilite container covered with camo tape. Nothing is placed on top of it but it is secure and well hidden from view. There is a rock on either side so you can put it back in the same place. Original contents: Vulpus TB, Vidvandre TB, a Where’s George $1 (this is a traveler who was stuck for over 2 years before I found him, someone please help him on his way-he is tracked from the wheresgeorge.com site), magnetic key box, and other swag items of interest to kids.
