Parking Coordinates: N 40° 18.652 W 078°

The cache location is in an area of the park that is not usually
seen by visitors, so if you've been to the park before, you should
see some new territory. You will see the old cold-blast furnace
where they used to make iron back in the 18th century. Be sure to
read the information boards concerning the furnace for some
interesting history.
To reach this cache, follow the trails and the old forest road
until your GPS takes you pointing on a 90 degree turn. The last
approximately 125 feet requires some bushwhacking, with the last
25' being over rocky and steep terrain. It would be advisable
to wear heavy shoes or hiking boots, and in hunting season,
wear fluorescent orange. In the summer, be aware of the possibility
of snakes.
The posted coordinates are the location where you will find a
container (peanut butter jar covered with camo tape) which contains
the tool you will need to obtain the cache container (50 cal. ammo
box). Please be sure to return the tool to its container and hiding
place for the next cacher to enjoy.
The cache contains tools and useful swag, so try to exchange
with a tool theme in mind.
The hint directs you to the cache location, so you may want
to bring along a compass. The coordinates for the cache are
N40 18.878 W078 07.700, however satellite reception is no
better then +/- 38', so a compass may be of some help.
