7 wonderful women series is a well thought out collection of caches along the 7 sister trail system. Located along the peaks of the Holyoke Range one can start their journey from the Summit house or from the Notch Visitors center.
Lets face it, women can be difficult and chasing after these women is going to be no easy task! Geocachers are encouraged to travel in pairs or small groups, DO NOT FORGET YOUR PACK! or your bugspray and your camera, and bring along some TRAVEL BUGS. Bring along a lunch because Claiming all of thest beauties in one shot will take about 6 hours. I strongly suggest to not travel alone, have one car at the Notch visitor center and another at the base of the Summit house. Hike from one end to the other, the distance is just over 4 miles. Follow the WHITE DOTS all the way! This terrain will be a great challenge, DO NOT seek caches if you do not accept the physical challenges.
LEAH is the name of the woman you seek for this cache. Located atop Mt. Hitchcock. This is one of the highest peaks in the trek next to BARE MT. which has a small cache hidden due to the traffic.
LEAH is my best friend and thus she deserves to be at the highest point. LEAH is also a Letter Box Hybrid because when I was placing this cache I found a Letter box within 5 feet of the spot. THe letter box was destroyed due to weather so I salvaged what I could and Thus this is what you get. I picked this spot because of the red wild flowers that were growing near by, they reminded me of LEAH's red hair.
Mt. Hitchcock summit point is near the cache site, its a great place to rest after visiting LEAH. Same rules apply here as to all my caches.. IF YOU TAKE A TRACKABLE THEN LEAVE ONE! TRADE UP/EQUAL OR DONT TRADE AT ALL! COPY THE #'S IF YOU WANT THE CREDIT THAT BAD!
AS OF 3 FEB 2008, A COORDINATE CARD HAS BEEN PLACED IN THE CACHE. THIS CARD CONTAINS THE FINAL LOCATIONS TO ALL OF THE CACHES IN THE SERIES. IF YOU CANNOT FIND A PART TO A MULTI OR FIGURE OUT THE MYSTERY CACHES, HERE IS YOUR CHEAT SHEET The coords as of 5/12 have changed for lost girl final.. Look at the listings. THIS SHEET IS NOT FOR THE TAKING, TAKE THE #'S AND LEAVE THE CARD FOR OTHERS.\\
Also As of 5/12/2008
This cache as my other caches in the area have 1 golden rule. Due to the intensity of these trails, DO NOT take a trackable without replacing it with one. Take the #'s and discover it if you want it that bad. I want all my caches on this trail system to have at least 1 trackable in them at all times. This way the cacher will get credit for their find and for the trackable. THANK YOU
