Geocache Description:


The geocache hidden at the posted coordinates is a regular geocache, however, it is also part of the Allegheny GeoTrail (AGT), a publicly funded project designed to promote a pleasant and positive experience and image of the Allegheny National Forest region and its gateway communities. The AGT utilizes the growing interest in geocaching to assist both residents and visitors to the area in learning more about the unique attractions in the ten participating counties. This cache contains a unique self inking rubber stamp which you should use to stamp your Allegheny GeoTrail Passport to verify that you found it. When you have found a minimum of six AGT caches, you will be eligible to have your AGT passport validated and receive a commemorative AGT trackable geocoin at participating locations. You must have your official AGT passport with you when you find this cache in order to stamp it. Click on the Allegheny GeoTrail Logo below to visit the AGT website at www.alleghenygeotrail.com for complete details and a listing of participating locations where you may pick up and validate AGT passports to receive your souvenir geocoin, trackable at www.geocaching.com .



This cache is placed in an awesome area along The Tanbark Trail, one of our favorite hiking trails in the Allegheny National Forest. You will really enjoy this trail and the area that the cache brings you to. You can walk in from the trailhead at either end of this section of the trail, either at Rt.337 near Sandstone Springs or from where it crosses the Hearts Content Road. Either way it is a nice enjoyable walk. From The Trailhead at the Hearts Content Road, it will be about a three fourths mile hike one way and from Sandstone Springs (RT 337) about a mile to about a mile and a quarter hike each way This is an amazing hike with plenty of things to see including pileated woodpeckers and a beautiful native trout stream. We recommend that you just stay on the trail until your GPS says you need to move perpendicular to the trail. It is placed far enough off the trail to minimize accidental finds. We also recommend bug spray, a flashlight, and sturdy shoes. Good luck in the hunt.
