A different type of cache container that may fool a few but the view is so beautiful I don't think anyone will mind. Room for small objects however the log is in a waterproof container in the cache & may require tweezers for removal :) 24/29 hides for my personal challenge of one a day for February
I have watched everyday over the years as they redeveloped this area while I traveled to/from work. Its also an area I enjoy in the warmer months to walk the geopuppies & bike. I thought that hiding some geocaches in the area would introduce others to this beautiful area with nature abound. The Greenway trail is a portion of a 120-acre parcel of land along Buffalo’s Outer Harbor that is currently owned by the NFTA. Beginning in the mid-19th Century, the land was artificially created by dredging soils from the bottom of the Buffalo Outer Harbor and depositing the material along the shoreline, a practice that ran until the mid-1960s. The soils, dredged from the harbor shipping channels, were contaminated from heavy industry that once existed along the waterfront. The site also contained municipal ash and construction disposal debris. Under DEC oversight, NFTA remediated contaminated soils along the shoreline and stabilized the shoreline slope with a heavy stone embankment to prevent erosion. The project also included ecological improvements along the shoreline and within the bay area known as the Bell Slip, such as the construction of shallow-water fish habitat that is conducive to spawning for local fish species. NFTA also planted native vegetation along both sides of the pathway to attract local wildlife.
