A nice walk through the woods mostly following trails. While some of the trails behind the school are closed the seeded trails are sprouted, you can do a little bushwacking next to the school and hook up with trails that go towards the cache.
To get to the cache, you'll have to cross some small streams. This cache was hidden during the winter and don't know how hard it will be to cross in other seasons.
The Grater Woods of Merrimack, NH is new conservation land and is a very cool place to explore. There are a number of beaver ponds, an unnamed lake and at least two heron nests.
Park at the Merrimack Middle School parking lot at 42.869676, -71.542955 (+42° 52' 10.83", -71° 32' 34.64") and hike in from there.
