Geocache Description:

This cache is hidden on one of Fern Mountain's Recreation Area trails. Trail heads in Fern Park - Inlet, NY - Adirondacks - about 10 miles past Old Forge. Follow signs to Fern Park from downtown Inlet off of Rt. 28.

MISSING - sorry guys... Stop at the information board in the park - make sure to take a map and register on the hiker sign in/out log. There are quite a few trails here - many of which will bring you to where you want to go.

There is a section of trail closed at this time - this is marked on the board map at the park, but not on the trail maps provided. This section will not be necessary to find the cache.

The cache is located at an elevation of approximately 1935'. It should take about 0.7 miles of hiking to reach the cache. Make sure you wear your hiking boots and you'll probably want to wear some pants. The trails may be well marked - but that doesn't mean they are well traveled. If it has rained - be prepared to get a little muddy.

To reach the cache - a small bit of climbing is necessary. If you could climb over something the size of a car, then this is no big deal.

After your hike - head over to Enchanted Forrest Water Safari in Old Forge to cool off. This is highly recommended! :)
