As I have with every other 50 find milestone I have passed, I am hiding another cache to celebrate my 200th.
Located in Mantua Township’s beautiful Chestnut Branch Park this is a puzzle cache that hopefully will be fun as well as informative. The coords listed are for parking not the actual cache.
As the title says “It’s A Date”. To find the actual cache you will have to place a number from the following dates into a new set of coords. Some of the dates will be quite easy others you might have to look up.
Example: New Years day is January (A). Since (A) = 1 the 1 will go in the (A) spot of the coords. N39 (1)(B).(C)(D)(E) W75 (F)(G).(H)(I)(J)
The terrain rating will be higher in the winter or wet weather because of a couple of steep hills so please wear appropriate shoes. Cache is a log only medium spice jar. The park is open from dawn to dusk and as with most South Jersey wooded caches; ticks, thorns and poison ivy might be present.
