Ironia Trails Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Pofe: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have been looking at caches in the area that have been temporarily disabled for a while now and it looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache. If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link of your cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks,

Geocache Description:

Cache is located on Patriots Path near Ironia.

I changed the rating as the cache has been relatively easy to find...a nice family outing. Finding the cache requires a short hike into the woods using Patriots Path. There are 2 routes to the cache. Route 1 is more challenging because of the network of paths. For Route 1, I suggest parking at Bill's Luncheonette and entering Patriots Path less than 20 yards from the rear of the parking lot (40 49.352 & 74 37.720). Knowledge of reading trail markings is important...follow Patriots Path (white trail blaze). The second route to the cache is parking at the trail head from Park Ave to Main Street (40. 49.967 & 74 37.906). Follow the blue trail blaze to Patriots Path. The trail from this second route is longer but more open and requires an uphill climb near the end. The cache is a clear rubbermaid container about 2 qt size. This area is part of the Black River Wildlife Management Area which is used alot by hunters in the fall. I do not recommend you search for this cache during hunting season. Please do not use the side streets shown on the map as several private properties would be crossed if you acessed the cache from these streets. I obtained 7 waypoint readings to identify the coordinates. Please let me know if they are accurate. Good luck
