Geocache Description:

Hartshorne is in need of more caches so here you are have fun.... Retread your hiking boots...the ups and downs will test your stamina. This three leg multi cache will have you out most of afternoon. It can be reached from either Parking area..I suggest the portland rd parking area.

Performed some cache maintenance today (5/4/2003) I replaced the first two leg containers with glass jars this way the animals can't chew there way in. I used the original coordinates today and had no problem finding the caches (but, then I know where they are). In the cheat are addtional coodinates if you need them. If you can't find these using the cheats....give up geocaching.....We used two units to double check the coordinates and they were close. We used a Garmin GPSMAP76 and a Garmin Etrex Vista. .

Good Luck !

#1 The first Cache is in a small glass jar. There is no need to sign in to this cache just use the coordinates to the next cache. When you place it back "exactly" as you found it. It contains a soggy log book with the coordinates clearly written on the cover of the log book.

#2 The Second is also in a small glass jar. Replace "exactly" as you found it. It also, contains a soggy log book with the coordinates of the next cache written on the cover. There is no need to log your visit here either.

#3 The third is located off the trail not too far. This one will involve more bushwhacking deeper into the woods between trails. It's a large blue/green tupperware style container Watch your step. Log you visit here !!

The cache contains:

  • A log book
  • Pencil and Sharpener (leave the shaperner)
  • Camera to take a picture of yourself (leave the camera)
  • The original contents has changed
