Geocache Description:

This cache is located in beautiful Letchworth State Park. The cache site can be accessed from the parking lot inside the park at N 42 40.238 W 077 58.384 This cache requires some hill climbing.

The cache is a standard 50 cal. ammo box painted with the familiar drab green paint and with “geocache” stenciled on the top and sides. Park in the Smokey Hollow Overlook, trail head is to the South, see pic #1. I do not recommend bushwhacking straight to this cache , start by following trail #15. Parts of this trail in spring more closely resemble a small stream than a walking path so be careful. See hints and pics for more details. Be warned, this cache is not for little kids or anyone in poor health. If your smart you will take along a couple of granola bars and some bottled spring water. Bug spray might be a good idea also, the bugs were already out and hungry when I scouted out this site.

Original items placed in this cache are

AA Batteries, playing cards, padlock, baseball, calculator, pocket knife, screwdriver set, cable ties, precision screwdriver set, mighty wheels jeep, matchbox car, digital watch, log book.
