Simonson Brook Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

nikcap: I checked up on this cache today and sure enough it's gone. (or at least it's not near where I originally hide it)
This is a nice spot, but I need to start thinning out my active caches.
Thanks to all that visited this cache and enjoying the area.

Geocache Description:

Large lock-n-lock hidden in the Griggstown Native Grassland Preserve. The cache is just off of the Simonson Brook Trail (orange blazes).

This should be an easy one to find as it's hidden in the most obvious spot. This cache is designed to be the last stop on you Griggstown circuit hike. The woods and nearby brook make this an ideal spot to end your day. Please, only approach this cache from the recommended parking, as coming from any other direction will most likely result in trespassing across private property.

Combing this one with The Copper Mine and the Sourland View Trail cache make a nice loop hike around the preserve. I would recommend starting with the Sourland View Trail cache by following the gravel road from the parking south, to the blue trail and then follow the red trail. From there visiting the copper mine via the pipe line and then following the brown and orange trail to Simonson Brook.

Have fun and enjoy your walk. As always, thanks for caching with us!
