My 11 year old daughter created this cache filled with goodies
related to pirates and ninjas in a 4"x6" lock-n-lock container. It
is located in the vicinity of the Rhodendron Bridge in the Mohonk
Preserve, at the intersection of 5 popular carriage roads, so
please use stealth and watch out for muggles.
You can get there from either the Undercliff and Overcliff
carriage roads, around 2.5 miles from the Trapps Steel Bridge on
Rt. 44/55. Or it can be approached from the Mohonk Mountain House
Resort (maybe around 1.5? miles on a variety of carriage roads or
trails). There is also a fee to park and hike on the Mohonk
Mountain House property, and you can only park right at the Hotel
if you are a guest or have a reservation for a meal. Otherwise you
will have to leave your car in a lot near Mountain Rest Road and
hike further.
The Mohonk Preserve is a private land conservation organization
established to protect the Shawangunk Ridge, it is not public land
funded by the government. Therefore, there is a day use fee to use
the preserve which funds its maintenance and programs. For the
current day pass fees, check the Mohonk Preserve website. The Mohonk
Preserve does allow geocaching on its land, as long as it is along
established trails and carriage roads. Note that dogs must be
leashed at all times.
p.s. If this cache has run out of pirate and ninja related
items, please send me a message so we can replenish the
goodies.
