My second cache down the Methuen Rail Trail. Look across the wetlands from the cache location for a great view of a heron rookery in/near the bird sanctuary. As we placed the cache, stopped to watch these beautiful birds flying about, landing on their nests and taking off again.
Please replace camouflage as found.
This section of the Methuen Rail Trail has recently been completed, though they are working on refining side trails throughout the bird sanctuary. Parking coordinates below are for the Hampshire Road end of the trail, but their website provides a few other options: http://methuenrailtrail.org/directions/
Nice, fairly flat terrain. Mild bushwacking (there's a bit of a path off the main trail) to get to the cache - roughly 30-35 feet off the trail. Trail leads down to the old railroad station (or begins there , depending on where you park), which is now being used as offices for a local union. Enjoy the view!
