Geocache Description:

This cache is located not far off the Paulinskill Trail. A great path for hiking, horseback riding or bicycling. Lots of wildlife along the way. When we placed this cache we spotted two bear, a dear, 4 turkeys, lots of horses and a few llamas!! This will be very hard with snow on the ground. Good luck and keep on cachin.

The Paulinskill Valley Trail is a rail trail along the Paulins Kill River in New Jersey. It is the sixth longest trail in the state at twenty-seven miles. It was originally a right-of-way of the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway. Several parts of the railway remain including several bridges, stations, mileage markers, and other railway artifacts. Over 560 species of birds have been sighted on the trail as well as a multitude of other wildlife. In 1886, the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway built the first part of the part of the railway tracks that is now the trail. In 1962 the railroad ceased its operations. In 1985 the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection organized a meeting in Blairstown to decide what should be done with the intention of buying the land. A year later, in 1986, the NJDEP bought the land.
