Geocaching
Geocaching is a fun activity for the entire family that is not well-known to all, but to some geocachers that travel to across the land (some even around the world) to find little treasures hidden throughout the lands. Lake Perry has numerous caches hidden from easy to find to nearly impossible; smooth terrain to rocky; small containers to large…it’s all a hunt to find out what is out there.
