Geocache Description:

Wear good shoes, there are some small steep grades. THIS IS A PRISTINE NATURAL AREA SO STAY ON THE TRAIL! Please do not disturb any plants or animals.

Last year the other half and myself went looking for this site. How hard could it be to find? I knew it was in Tuscarora! So off we went! We couldn't find it! We stopped the park ranger and asked him! He had no clue where it could be in his park. Well, that's great!!!!!! After a little thought, he put it all together!

You want Tuscarora State Forest, NOT Tuscarora State Park!

It was only a 100 mile mistake! Sooooo we'll save you the 100 mile mistake!

Parking and trail head are at the above coordinates. This area is a "NATURAL AREA"! Parking is along the road and is at a premium. DO NOT CACHE AND DASH! Start at trail head and stay on the trail!

This "object" is estimated to be 1200 to 1300 years old. Did I mention, this is a NATURAL AREA, STAY ON THE TRAILS!

To claim this cache, answer via separate email, the following questions.

  1. What "object" is 1200 to 1300 years old?
