The Bay Circuit Trail South geocache was originally hidden by
Khao Mun Gai on July 20, 2001 and it is one of the oldest surviving
geocaches in Massachusetts. Though Khao Mun Gai has moved on, we
have decided to adopt the cache so that its legacy may
continue.
This cache is hidden along the Bay Circuit Trail in
Kingston, accessed through Sampson Park on Elm Street just after
the one-lane-bridge. Sampson Park is across the street from
Coughlin and Coughlin, a very interesting store in an old mill that
is worth a visit by itself.
The Bay Circuit Trail starts somewhere on the South Shore (it
may start right at Sampson Park) and makes its way clockwise around
Boston through twenty one towns between Route 128 and Interstate
495. Kingston and Duxbury are on the southern end with Newburyport
to the North.
It is a short and level hike through beautiful New England
forest.
When seeking this cache, please keep an eye out for Lady
Slippers which seem to be particularly happy in the Bay Circuit
Trail South woods.
The Sampson Park parking area is located at N 41 59.408 W 070
