OReviewer: As there's been no cache to find for a long time or has had no owner response for at least 30 days, I'm archiving it to keep it from showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Please note that if geocaches are archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ for lack of maintenance, they are not eligible for unarchival.

Geocache Description:

A pleasant hike up into the Ramapo Reservation and along the shore of the high reservoir.

This cache is hidden at one of my favorite out-of-the-way places to go on a nice day: a shaded bend on the shore of the Macmillan Reservoir. The hike is a little over a mile (one way) from the lot on Rt. 202. The best approach is to take the orange trail up past the waterfall to the dam on the south side of the reservoir, then cross and take the unmarked trail along the shore.

The cache is a 6" lock-n-lock with the usual miscellanea, including a bunch of coins looking to travel onward. Please note that you need not trade for coins; to reiterate the guidelines, they are happy to hitch a ride with you independent of the usual swag-trading rules.

If you're wondering about the name, I've caught more of these critters within half a mile of this cache (including one precisely at the GZ while hiding this cache) than anywhere else I've been.
