Located on Soapstone Mt. in Somers CT.
Soapstone Mountain is a close park for us to hike around. A popular spot for mountain bikers, I like the area best with snow on the ground.
From Somers, Take Route 190E (1.25 miles) to blinking yellow light. Turn right onto Gulf Road (2.25 miles) to next right after Mountain View Road, which is Soapstone Mountain Road. Park at the entrance and proceed on the trails to the cache.
For your hiking enjoyment, Shenipsit Trail (blue blazed) runs by the tower. The observation tower on Soapstone Mountain provides wonderful views of the surrounding and distant landscapes. On a clear day you can see Mount Greylock in Massachusetts and Mount Monadnock in New Hampshire, two of New England's most famous peaks.
