Geocache Description:


TL;DR: Hike to a small cache at an interesting spot in the woods. You don't need to get scraped up to find it.

This is part of a series of caches, each of which contains a letter tile from the world's most popular word game. Take note of the letter associated with this cache if you are interested solving a bonus cache puzzle later.

Caution: When hunting for this cache, use caution to avoid getting scrapes. Finding the cache does not require reaching anywhere that could cause scrapes. Ticks are likely to be encountered in the open grassy areas on some of the trails.

Container: The cache is a small, round, heavily camoed food storage container. Don't look at the hint unless you need it. It will give it away.

Access: There are several ways to access the trails in these woods. See the waypoints for suggested starting points for this particular cache.  Coordinates for this cache can be reached easily by following trails. The shortest route is from Indian Ridge Drive, though the trails are more open and more likely to have ticks. The route from the Boston Lot Lake parking area is longer, but a nicer hike, especially if you go in toward the lake, and then across through the woods (not following the power lines). The Trails map in the geocaching app shows most of the trails in this area. This cache is likely to be accessible most of the time in winter also.
