Geocache Description:

The cache is a large Tupperware contain located within the park but off the official walking trail. It should be winterized enough for seeks during Winter.

Welcome to 
 

Stony Point Battlefield Geocache Site

Located off the Palisades Parkway near the Hudson River, this is the scene of a battle in 1776 
where the American Light Infantry surprised the British Forces with a Midnight attack. 
This is also home to the oldest Lighthouse on the Hudson River.

 

While you are here, check out the Museum, lighthouse and generally walk around the park...there are picnic tables too.

There's a slight decline towards the cache site that could be slippery in winter - be careful!
