This cache is on the Evans Flats Trail. Trailhead and kiosk at Evans Road cul-de-sac off Elm Street in Peterborough. My husband Peter and I volunteer to maintain this trail and I wanted to draw in some geocachers to enjoy it. Volunteers including neighbors and Conservation Commission members mapped and cleared this 1.6-mile, mostly forested trail along Nubanusit Brook lowlands. The land’s former owners, eager to conserve land they loved, offered it to the town first and at a favorable price. In 2001 voters approved funds to purchase the 109-acre property, thereby conserving significant wetlands, and aquifer and floodplain geography. Blue blazes mark the main loop and orange blazes mark a midway shortcut option. Watch for signs of the land’s farming history as you explore the trail. It’s rough underfoot at times, and waterproof boots are recommended during wet periods. Note: Because of exceptional wildlife habitat on this river-corridor land, dogs are not allowed.
