It's a short walk down the road to the hiking trail on the left. Take this trail into the woods. Cross over two wooden bridges and follow the trails. No need to bushwack. It's just a few fet off a trail. On 10/21/12 we moved the cache just a few feet from its original location due to safety reasons. The original coordinates should still work.
You are looking for a quart size camo container.
Park Station is a great place to go if you want to relax and enjoy nature. It’s off the beaten path, located in the town of Erin, NY, but well worth the drive. It is open year round for camping. Pitch a tent, or pull your RV into one of the 40 electric, wooded campsites. Some of the campsites are located on the 100 acre stocked lake. A NYSDEC fishing license is required.
There are vending machines, laundry facilities, hot/cold showers, playgrounds, a camp store, a small snack shop, a baseball field, a sandy volleyball court, and horseshoes. Picnic sites with charcoal grills are found throughout the park.
Swimming and a large sandy beach are available weekends only from Memorial Day until the end of June, and daily thereafter through Labor Day 10am – 7pm. Car top boats are allowed on the lake. (Boats on trailers need a permit). Electric motors are available to rent to persons with physical disabilities. Also, rental boats are available at the boathouse when the swimming area is open.
There are several hiking trails located within the park. A self-guided trail brochure is available at the park office. Cross-country skiing is permitted. Winter hours are 9am to sunset daily.
Directions: At the intersection of Rt 13 and East Franklin St in Horseheads, turn onto Rt 223 (Breesport Rd). Go 5.4 miles and turn Left on Laurel Hill Rd. Follow signs to Park Station.
FYI- You may want to do this cache in the off seasons if you don’t want to pay an entrance fee. Also, be out of the park before the gates close at sunset.
