The Kooser Cache Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Pennywise: Sorry to say that this cache is no more. I read the notes from the previous finders and found the time to head up there and check it out for myself. They have done a ton of tree removal in the location where the cache resided, most likely putting in another tubing/ski slope. I could hardly even recognize the area since it looked totally destroyed. It didn't help that I went up last weekend, which it rained continually. It was a chilly, muddy mess.

Thanks to all who have found this cache and sorry to those who have had to experience this mess firsthand. I guess you could say that the terrain rating should have been a little higher with the recent work going on out there.

Geocache Description:

This cache is located on the outskirts of Kooser State Park on Route 31. The cache itself is located off of one of the trails that connect Kooser State Park with Hidden Valley. The cache is a clear plastic container with a handful of miscellaneous items to start.

Directions: Take Route 31 to Kooser State Park. The park is not very big, so one could pretty much park anywhere and easily find the cache in an hour and a half. I would recommend obtaining a map at the park office and head for the camping area, specifically Kooser Spring.

There are actually two different trails that are found near the spring. One trail actually goes through site #25 and passes North of Kooser Spring. This is NOT the one to take. Take the other trail, which is located on the South side of the Spring. Head West on the trail, which will take you out of Kooser and toward Hidden Valley.

The cache is hidden off of this trail somewhere. And the rest is up to you....
