Geocache Description:

A pleasant walk in very well maintained trails.

Dartmouth Natural Resources Trust (DNRT) is a non-profit land trust based in Dartmouth, MA which owns more than 1,400 acres in 49 Open Space Reserves. In 2004, DNRT purchased the Ridge Hill Reserves. The properties include the 38-acre Jason Phillips Mill Site, the 85-acre Ridge Hill Reserve and the 35-acre Barzabiel Washburn Reserve.




In 2006, DNRT added to the Ridge Hill Reserve by acquiring another 52 acres between the existing Reserve and protected land owned by the City of Fall River Water Department. The Reserves include a millpond, beautiful pitch pines and hemlocks, white pines and mature beech stands. Visitors should also watch for lady slippers in the late spring, blueberries and huckleberries in late summer and many different kinds of birds and plants.



The cache is a medium size container and is very snow friendly off of nicely maintained trails.

Parking is at N 41`41.669 W 071`01.320, off of Collins Corner Road.
