Looking for the perfect hiding spot


Like most kids my grandson, Tyler, calls geocaching ‘Treasure Hunting’ so when he came to visit, and brought his sister (Emily) and his mom (Mommy2Tyler), I thought it would be a good idea if he would help me hide a cache. This part of Game Lands #213 has been screaming for a cache for a long time, so this is where we decided to put it. Only about 500 feet from the parking area, it’s just a short walk. The start of the trek is the worst, as there are high weeds near the road. After that, the going gets easier. The Pennsylvania Game Commission owns about 1.4 million acres in the Game Lands program. They are paid for with dollars that come from hunting license sales, but with a few exceptions, are open for all people to enjoy their favorite pastimes. Game Land #213 is one of the most popular areas in the state for waterfowl hunters. The parking lots near the cache site are usually filled before 4 AM on the first day, and the railroad tracks near Geneva are “Standing room only” at dawn. At other times, however, this Game Land is rarely used. There is a Propagation Area nearby, that is closed all year long, so that wildlife can reproduce unmolested, but it’s not near the cache, and it’s well marked by signs. In your log, say “hi” to Tyler, because he will be watching. I hope you have as much fun finding this cache, as we did hiding it. It contains treasures for kids of all ages, and a special treasure for the First Finder!
