Didn't have a clue that this tower even existed until I read a
recent 'Hike of the Week' article in the Poughkeepsie Journal
Players section, the author of which is the clue. Even though its a
little out of our normal caching territory, we love fire towers and
decided to add this one to our other two tower caches
(
Lets Get High and
King of the Mountain). Don't know if the tower cabin is ever
locked but it will not prevent you from finding the cache if it is.
GPS had quite a bit of bounce so averaged all the readings.
To get to the cache, we took 301 east from Route 9 for 15.3
miles to Gipsy Trail Road (41), just before the West Branch
Reservoir causeway. Go 2.3 miles to the DEC Ninham Mountain
Multiple Use Area sign on the left. Continue for a half mile to the
parking lot at the end of the road.
Cache is a magnetic key holder. Please bring your own pen to
sign the log.
