The CO burkesf27 has generously offered his boat to help the WNC crew log his two stage UNDERWATER multi cache on Lake Riley in Eden Prairie:

Multi Cache Icon

Man Overboard!

N44° 50.197 W093° 31.618

The plan is to meet at the Lake Riley public landing and our host will ferry up to 8 people at a time to stage 1 & 2 of the cache. It doesn't make sense for the whole crew to go in the water at once, so I suggest we have "Designated Swimmers" (DS's) Laughing

to help retrieve the caches while the rest of the WNC crew cheers them on. Please post if you are willing to be a DS. I’m bringing Wundercachergirl and I know she will volunteer to be a DS.
Parking for cars without boats is available at: N44° 50.195 W093° 30.655. If you want to bring your own a boat or jet ski the cars with boat parking is at: N44° 50.112 W093° 30.661.

I know this is a busy time of the year for everyone, but if your in town this should be a fun one! I hope we have a good weather and a good turnout!! Change of plans lets go to Buffalo Wild Wings in Chanhassen ... it's right accross HWY 5 from the Houlihan's Restaurant I orginally proposed in Chanhassen for post game activities.

Where's Lake Riley? Razz

I am glad you didn't pick this one for this week as Geofeet has a double header. I am pretty sure I am open on the 30th and would be happy to cheer Wundercachergirl on Cool

Ohhhhh, sounds like fun! If I have a late volleyball game that night (it's playoffs - won't know the time till Monday of next week), I'll be there for as long as I can and am willing to be a DS if you need another.

Chances are good that I will be there with the jet ski and some extra life vests. Still working the details, though.

I'll echo butcher's question. How deep is it? (As in, are fins and a mask good tools to bring?). Either way, sounds like fun and I plan on being there. I wonder if the cache page could answer my first question Wink
