Geocache Description:


I picked up some snowshoes at the recent Winter Geomeet and just had to head out and use them. I picked a spot near the top of Benson Mountain and headed west through the forest to a nice hidden spot near the Connecticut border.

Plan on a mile walk on a decent carriage road and about a half mile in the woods. There might be a trail, there might not. In winter you'll need snowshoes and a sense of adventure. The cache was placed in a snow friendly location.

To avoid trespassing on private property, use the Buck Hill Parking area. Most of the nearby property in Connecticut and Rhode Island in privately owned and posted.

*** Warning *** *** Warning *** *** Warning ***

Hunting season for archers is October 1 - February 31. Cache is in a area likely to be hunted and cachers should use common sense and wear orange. Avoid visiting near dawn and dusk when deer, and hunters are active.
