Geocache Description:

This is one in a series of caches entitled "Take a Hike" that was placed by The Lynch Three between 2011-2012. There are no puzzles, no hard multi's, or no challenging hides in this series; instead, what they share in common is a good hike in the woods, enjoyable in any season.

The Lynch Three has been retired from caching for a while now, so I adopted some of this series so that others could have the same experience of taking a great hike like I once did!

This Boxford conservation property is part of what is called The Lord Forest, with a nice path called "The Lane" running through one section (which also encompasses a feature called "The Fairy Ring", a clearing that is surrounded by mushrooms). This cache placement will bring you to an active beaver site, complete with dam, countless gnawed stumps and fresh chips on the ground. You can make a loop walk out of this by moving in a counter-clockwise direction. There are trails across the street that access the Haynes Woods.

Enjoy your hike!
