Geocache Description:

Located in Bray's Hill Preserve in Clinton Township.

The fields on Bray's Hill have been mown and sown since colonial times. Daniel Bray risked all by gathering and hiding the Durham longboats that carried George Washington across the Delaware on Christmas Eve of 1776. Bray's sons operated a tannery, a distillery, and a farm in the vicinity. This property was purchased by Clinton Township in November 1997 from Exxon. The preserve is off of Sand Hill Road in Clinton Township. There is parking for about three cars.

Clinton has set Bray's Hill Preserve aside for low-impact recreation: hiking, birding, cross-country skiing, and natural history education. But how to manage the property? Clinton plans to keep the Bray's Hill meadows open.

You will park at the above coordinates and from there you will be able to answer the following questions in order to complete the coordinates for the final cache.

There is a St. Patrick's Day bear in the cache for the first time find.
