Geocache Description:

Is this another strangler fig tree hide? Or is this a banyan tree hide? Turns out Banyan and Strangler trees are often referred to as the same type of tree. Birds eat the figs and drop them from above. Plants start to form and grow roots. These roots begin to wrap around the host tree. Over time a massive amount of branches, stems and nooks form, taking over the tree or strangling it.
(**There are 2 dogs on the other side of the fence**)

Congratulations to ConnArtist on the FTF!

I saw the HUGE Strangler tree in Riverbend Park in Jupiter, which happens to contain a cache. There is a Banyan tree nearby here, which also contains a cache. They are the same type trees. I hear the original Strangler is quite challenging high difficulty and the nearby Banyan is somewhat easy lower difficulty. This one is aimed to be right in the middle.
