COOKIES CRUMBLE CACHE. It has been a long winter and we are finally
getting to our 'promise' of placing this cache within 30 days after
the Cookies Crumble Event in Dec 2007. This is a 1 quart
lock'n'lock container filled with great geo swag. This cache was a
donation to the C.C.E. raffle by loande. (Thanks you loande). This
cache is located in the Lang Station State Forest. A great area
with other caches nearby. Bring a fishing pole, pack some
sandwiches and make a day of it.
The Lang Station State Forest is located in New Boston and covers
226.3 acres. This four mile trail stretches from the Hillsborough
County 4-H Fairgrounds in New Boston to the Goffstown line. The
trail is part of the original bed for the Boston and Maine
Railroad, which was abandoned in the mid 1970's. The land was later
acquired by the Town of New Boston and the New Hampshire Land
Conservation Investment Program. The trail parallels the South
Branch of the Piscataquog River. The trail offers hikers,
bicyclists, cross country skiers, snow-shoers, equestrians,
fishermen, bird watchers and others the opportunity to observe the
river and wildlife. This trail also connects with footpaths and
horsetrails in Lang Station State Forest. Two points of interest on
the trail are the Lang Station built by the railroad to shelter
waiting passengers and the footbridge that connects the trail
segments. This is an easy walking trail for younger children.
Parking is at the Lang Station on Gregg Mill Road or at the 4-H
County Fairgrounds. Visitors may access the trail at Lang Station,
Parker Station or the Fairgrounds. The area should be familiar to
many who have located our first cache that we adopted, On the Right
Track, and our first attempt at placing a multi, On the Right Track
2. Believe it or not the trail to this cache as of 4/22/08 is still
covered in about 1 foot of snow!!!! Today should hit the low 80's !
It was really weird walking on snow in such beautiful weather. This
hide is not difficult so no hint should be needed. The cache is a
short bushwack from trail on level ground.
