This should be a relatively easy cache to find and if you choose
the parking spot carefully there is only minimal bushwacking. You
are looking for an ammo box but it shouldn't be too difficult to
find. We chose to call this cache "Happy Ending" for reasons we
won't disclose here.
The geocache hidden at the posted coordinates is a regular
geocache, however, it is also part of the Allegheny GeoTrail (AGT),
a publicly funded project designed to promote a pleasant and
positive experience and image of the Allegheny National Forest
region and its gateway communities. The AGT utilizes the growing
interest in geocaching to assist both residents and visitors to the
area in learning more about the unique attractions in the ten
participating counties. This cache contains a unique self inking
rubber stamp which you should use to stamp your Allegheny GeoTrail
Passport to verify that you found it. When you have found a minimum
of six AGT caches, you will be eligible to have your AGT passport
validated and receive a commemorative AGT trackable geocoin at
participating locations. You must have your official AGT passport
with you when you find this cache in order to stamp it. Visit the
AGT website at www.alleghenygeotrail.com for complete details and a
listing of participating locations where you may pick up and
validate AGT passports to receive your souvenir geocoin, trackable
at www.geocaching.com.
There's a couple reasons for placing a cache here. For one
thing it is a beautiful area and a great place to hike. We
purposely placed the cache relatively close to a very neat old
spring.
The coords for this spring are:
(41deg 16.919 & 078deg 52.041)
Remember the cache is nearby but not actually at the spring. Use
the listed coords to find the cache.
We also wanted to introduce you to the First Conservation Training
School in Pa. This was the Ross Leffler School of Conservation and
was in operation from 1932-1987. After you find the cache you may
want to drive further down the road to (41deg 17.758 & 078deg
52.626) and you can read about this Game School on a Plaque.
Please be advised this is State Game Lands and a very popular
hunting area. Cache safely and wear the required amount of orange
during hunting season.
