Geocache Description:


The first part of the Oak Trail Circuit is an EASEMENT that runs behind a bunch of new houses.  It may feel a bit awkward being so close to people's back yards but the trail is fairly well laid out.  So keep your eyes on the yellow blazes (arrow markers) the Conservation Commission has put on the trees so you know where the trail is at all times.

For those unfamiliar with trail hiking, when you are at a yellow blaze on a tree, you should be able to see the yellow blaze on the next tree. This way you will always be able to confidently move forward on the trail with a blaze always in sight.  Even in best case scenarios though sometimes you can't see the next blaze so do your best to stay on the trail until the next blaze appears.

The cache is hidden ON the trail.  As such, I put a small piece of wood over it so muggles can't see it.  After you're done finding this cache,  as you start back on the trail you will be taking a right.

The cache is a tall square plastic container with a purple lock n lock lid. You shouldn't have much trouble finding it, especially with a colorful fairy house and a small decorative bike pegged into the ground at GZ.

NOTE: I highly recommend the map for this one because the trail doesn't show up on the geocaching app.  I found it helpful to keep my bearings as I hiked the trail.

Congratulations on BostonBrewins on being First To Find!
