Geocache Description:

Cache is about 10-20' just off the paved pathway. No bushwacking required to find the hide. From coordinates below, cache is about 0.4 miles there and another 0.4 miles back. Slight inclines, but nothing too strenuous.

The cache is located about 10' off a paved jogging path that I run daily when I stay at my girlfriend's condo in the Hills. This jogging path is quite a nice route for a spring/summer stroll or the like. I'm not entirely certain of the length of the entire path, although I expect it to be approximately 5 miles out and another 5 miles back, but I'm not 100% certain of that; I've only gone so far as to reach the park and baseball fields. If you desire to do the entire path, there's a beautiful stream that runs parallel to it and a nice little pond. I actually noticed today during my run that the NJ Dept. of Fish and Wildlife posted a sign on a nearby tree that fishing is allowed at the stream and they do stock it with trout. Check out their website for rules and laws on fishing licenses and trout stamps, etc as I'm not expert on that subject. (visit link)

There's more than one entrance to the path, but the closest is at:
N40 39.473 W074 38.513
There's a day care facility about 100 yards from those coordinates and ground zero is about 0.4 miles from that coordinate. So prepare for about a mile walk/jog there and back.

Beware that there are many muggles jogging, walking or riding a bike at all times of the day, everyday.

This is a microcache with log and pencil stub only. Please bring a pen or pencil just in case. Sorry, but there's no room for any goodies. This is my very first hide; keep your eyes peeled for more to come.
