Geocache Description:


Another in our Beatles named caches in the Swift River Reservation. Once you arrive near gz you'll be thinking, "Baby, I AM a Rich man!  Look at all those hiding spots!"  No fear, cache is an Ammo can placed as close to visible as we dared.  All caches here were hidden while wearing shorts in August, we didn't climb around much, just looked for a nice shady spot.  It may not be winter friendly.  Terrain is a 3.5 due to what time of year and which route you choose to come by.  There are plenty of prizes for FTF and followers.

Cache is placed on the Red trail. Pay attention to provided waypoints. The Red trail is actually the longest trail here.  Follow the main path from the gate until you arrive at the foundation and split in the trail. Bearing right, away from waypoint, follows an old cart path uphill for a steady gain for almost .4 tenths of a mile, then turns and flattens out nicely.  Bearing left at the split towards the way point will bring you to another cart path leading up into the tree line on your right.  This is a shorter uphill trek towards the same goal.  The Red Trail is a loop, we recommend bearing towards the waypoint and following trail clockwise..

Baby You're a Rich Man was released in 1967 as the B side to the All You Need Is Love single.  Recorded during the Magical Mystery Tour sessions.  Maggie, the M of GMB, thinks keeping all your money in a big Brown bag inside a zoo is a wonderful idea.   With the interest rates who can argue?  The song was an ode to the beautiful people, or counterculture of the 60's.  Another foot stomping sing along with easy to appreciate lyrics and a chorus everyone can sing along to
