Geocache Description:

This cache was placed for the Strawberry Hill Event which was held at the Strawberry Hill Nature Center.



This cache is located on the Quarry Trail (red blazes; .5 mile; 20 minutes). Geology buffs will love the outcrops of many varied rocks and minerals found in our quarry. The quarry is also a great area to observe ravens and raptors. The quarry pools, including a larger pond, are important amphibian mating places filled with toads, frogs, and newts. Access is from the Nature Trail.

The cache is a oval shaped Tupperware container with Log book and trade items. Beware of your surrounding once you leave the trail there are loose rocks around. Please hide as found if not better and remember to trade up to preserve the integrity of the cache. Don’t forget to seek the Quarrying Times Earthcache which is also nearby.


Because I royally messed up on this one... It is NO LONGER a puzzle. The cache is a oval tupperware container 8x4x2 with a green lid. Until my local approver changes the listed coordinates they are N39 48.439 W77 25.082 (I'm pretty sure, this time).
