Geocache Description:

I should have called this the "Deer" cache. I stumbled onto two deer while walking the trail. There were all sorts of signs of them before I saw them; trackes, laydowns, etc.

There is only one entrance to this trail. If you park at Flo's Drive In (Clam Shack) start walking back up the hill on Park Ave. The trail starts somewhere along there. This used to be a dirt bike trail but I think the only ones that go back there now are the deer. The trail is really overgrown. There are ticks, I would guess deer ticks, mosquitos, briars, prickers, poison ivy, and even nettles. The trail is a loop. At the top of the loop is a small offshoot trail. You will find the cache up that trail. Again, lots of wild roses, low branches, miserable travel. You will come to a clearing where you can stand up straight. In there is an ideal hiding spot for a cache. The cache is in that hiding spot, in a white plastic bag because the lid isn't too tight. I'll let the first finder leave a spoiler to say what the hiding spot is. I want this cache to be a bit of a challenge. Good luck! The cache contains: the logbook, a pencil, a pen, a deck of cards, a screwdriver set, and a water bottle carrier.
