We go past this fire house often and noticed
joggers running through the parking lot and behind the building. We
decided to explore the area and found an old railbed/hiking
trail.
We placed 3 caches along this trail which runs
straight through the county line, from the Salem County Monroeville
Volunteer Fire Dept to Elephant Swamp on Elk Road (Rt 538) in
Gloucester County. One of RumGirl’s caches (GC18TYW) is
nearer the Elk Road end.
Total distance is 1.65 miles from parking lot to
parking lot. It’s an easy trail for walking or biking, with
no bushwhacking or swamping necessary. Good for the kids if they
don’t mind the distance and great for the dogs. Use stealth
when necessary and replace better than found.
This one’s off the trail a bit and there is a
slight slope to navigate. Numbers were not tight, so I’ve
increased the difficulty a little. I just couldn’t get a good
lock in this location. Let me know what you get.
Nice non-trackable FTF coin for the first one
there. Good luck!
Congrats to the 'cycles - Michael & Susan -
for FTF!
