Old Carriage Road Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

P-38 rider: I visited the cache last Friday to check things out.

What used to be a nice trail through the woods is now overgrown and full of trash. Ground zero has a couple of large tree falls. Accessing the area is difficult.

This is not the experience I wanted to share. It is no longer a place I want to encourage people to visit.

It's time to archive this one.

Geocache Description:


This cache is placed in the Madison park/trail "Old Carriage Road". This is a short trail on the east end of Nautilus Point Park.

I've lived in Madison for years and never knew this was here. I don't know how many times I've driven by this and never seen it. It is amazing what you see when you get out of your car!
