Attack of the Geocoins Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

thursnext: This one had a nice long run and it's original container never had to be replaced. Hiked out to GZ recently though and the landscape has had a change. The log the cache was hidden in rotted through and rolled down the hill. I wasn't able to locate the container and have decided to archive it. Thanks to everyone who visited!

Geocache Description:

Located along the Millenium trail in Middletown Township Memorial Park. Park is open dawn to dusk.
Parking @ N 39.55.058, W 075.24.312

This cache is a small camoed tin & is the idea of the youngest member of our team. The name is inspired by Star Wars, Attack of the Clones but I'm almost positive the geocoins will be better behaved.

From the Middletown twp web site:
The Millennium Trail begins at the north end of the Memorial Park parking lot, located across from the Water Works at the intersection of Baltimore Pike and Elwyn Road. Before or after your hike be sure to spend a few moments at the observation deck over Ridley Creek. In summer you are likely to see red-winged blackbirds, mallard ducks and great blue herons in the slack water behind the water plant's dam. The trail follows the crest of an old berm that runs along the creek's floodplain before heading uphill through a beech and oak woodland to a high bluff. From there one gains a fine view of a wetland meadow across the creek in Upper Providence Township. The trail then descends to a small tributary coming off Mineral Hill (source of a number of rare minerals of interest to local geologists) before looping and returning to the parking lot. The approximate round-trip length is 1/2 mile.

Congratulations again to bpp picnic for FTF!
