This is part of
a
series of 23
cachesdedicated to the American Aircraft of
WWII. Each cache is
dedicated to a particular aircraft model and can be logged as an
individual find. The
series consists of 16 regular caches and 7 mystery
caches. The series will
be divided into 5 sub-series, one for each category of aircraft
(
Fighters
,
Bombers,
Seaplanes
, and
X-series Prototypes) and a final series consisting of
three of the most recognizable aircraft of WWII. (P51 Mustang, B17
Flying Fortress and B29 Super Fortress)
This mystery cache is the SEAPLANE category of
the series. To find it,
you must first find G21A(
GC1676J), G44(

This series is located along a portion of the Randolph
Trails. These
trails are well maintained and easy to walk. There is parking for this
sub-series located at the above coordinates and terrain will vary
from 1.5 to 2.5, but check each cache page for
specifics.
Trail
maps are readily available at most of the trail
heads.
Randolph’s trail system runs a 16-mile course
traversing five parks, the Clyde Potts Reservoir Watershed
and 2,000 acres of pristine open space. The trails link
together schools with neighborhoods and connect to Patriots’
Path at Combs Hollow and Old Brookside. Randolph’s trails should be
viewed as a work in progress as the township continues to
pursue easements and funding to expand our trail network. The
township funds 90% of design and construction costs through
state grants and developer contributions. Over $1.5 million
in state grants and developer contributions has been invested
in Randolph’s trails. Open year round, the trails
can be used from dawn to dusk and are closed at night. During
the winter months, there is no snow or ice removal, providing
a wonderful opportunity for cross-country skiers and snowshoe
enthusiasts.
This
cache is located trailside and very little bushwacking is required. Please resist the urge to bushwack
during all the caches in this sub-series
(SEAPLANES). All
caches in this sub-series are located less than 60’ from the
trail. If your GPS is
showing over 100’ to GZ, you should try to find another
path.
