Cache is about 3 tenths of a mile hike one way on well maintained trails of varying terrain. Some easy bushwacking for the last hundred feet.
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.
This area is also home to the caches Remmie's Buggin' Out and Ridge Hill Reserve.
The cache is a Military De-Con container about 2 by 4 by 5 inches and will make a great Geocoin Drop Spot. Parking is at N 41`41.669 W 071`01.320, off of Collins Corner Road. An unactivated Geocoin is for the FTF.
Congratulations to Yblee for the FTF,I knew you could do it.
