Geocache Description:

Cache is not at the listed coordinates, but it is a good place to start.


This cache is located off the Cynwyd Heritage Trail.  The original Talking to Nora chirp cache was named after a gravestone marker for Nora, a young girl who died around 1920.  This was notable because it was placed close to, but outside of the main cemetery.  Unfortunately the marker disappeared and then no ceiling archived the cache. So I decided to replace this with another cache dedicated to Nora. It used to be a chirp cache, but the chirp has gone missing (again), so I have converted it into a multi.

The listed coordinates will take you to a trail head. Follow the trail to the right at the fork.  As you travel to the second stage it is easier if you try to angle uphill as you head toward the highway, or you will have a harder climb.
If  you look carefully on your way out to the cache, I have placed a small angel statue in remembrance of Nora (nearby but outside of the cemetery, although not quite in the original location of the gravestone). This is not the cache, but just a marker for Nora.

There are steep drop offs near the final hide, so this cache is not recommended for small children.  There is no need to cross the fence into the cemetery or get close to the highway. No significant bushwhacking is required to get to the final, although there is one moderately steep hill.

Please obey all park rules which includes no night access. Dogs are allowed on leashes, and you will see many dog walkers on the trail.
