- Thanks for checking on that. That area is a good area for geocaching. And the only reason I mention it is, according to the two websites I mentioned in my previous email ( St. Louis County Parks and St. Louis County parcel website ) both show only one corner of that whole area as being part of Lone Elk Park; the part nearest the main road going into Lone Elk. The rest, where all of the caches are hidden, is shown as private propery of the construction company.
