Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Get there by rowboat or walk across the ice! (difficulty much less by walking in winter)
This cache is in a rock wall at the edge of Canopus Lake in Clarence Fahnestock State Park in Putnam County, New York.

It's a standard 35mm film canister. Initial contents include; log book, pencil stub, single white die (dice) and computer Eject key.

This micro-cache is realistically only accessible by water. I suppose you could get to it overland, but it's a pretty steep vertical rock scramble down to the sheer face where the cache hides. Rent a rowboat at the Canopus Lake station, or bring your own small craft, kayak or canoe.

Wintertime bonus: Intrepid cachers can just walk right up to it across the ice! That's how we planted it. Make sure the ice is safe. Be careful!

I couldn't let this one go! I knew the window of oppty was small and having found the remains, came back with the missing pieces to make it once again whole for other thrill seekers. This one is exciting and is in tact where it belongs. Should be maint free for quite a while. SL and Thanks for the fun CO!

Took the boys up to rent a boat and do some fishing, and off course stop by for the cache. However, when we got there we found only the top of a clear film canister sitting on the moss under the tree. Can you say - I have a bad feeling about this? I'm thinking its gone.
