This popular activity gives you the chance to glean the makings of a s'more while enjoying a geocaching adventure. The cache locations are new for 2026. Three boxes are hidden with each box having a s'mores component ticket for either a graham cracker, a plant-based marshmallow, or a chocolate bar. Find all three, return to the starting spot and collect your s'mores kit. There will be a campfire to roast your well-earned dessert. Meet at the Legacy Wayside (behind the playground). The quest route will be half a mile over fairly level ground, so it is a good activity for younger kids because they love looking for stuff. Never geocached before? Park staff will explain how it is done, how our GPS units work, and lend you a unit for the activity. If you have a GPS app on your phone or devise, we'll give you the cache coordinates. This program can be started anytime between 12:30 and 2:30 p.m. The campfire will burn until 3:30 p.m. A limited number of roasting sticks will be available; guests are encouraged to bring their own.New to geocaching? We’ll give you some instruction with our units. Use of the units will be free of charge but will require submitting proof of identification and signing a loan-out sheet. Only one GPS unit per group will be available.
