Geocache Description:

Standard climb to Terrace Pond, with a short but nasty bushwhack.

Somewhere there's music.
How faint the tune.
Somewhere there's heaven.
How high the moon.
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon.
Until you will, how still my heart,
How high the moon.

Continuing in our endeavors to locate the Highest Point in Passaic County, we bring you the "2 points 1000' NE of Terrace Pond".
Point 2 is located about 'about 60' NNE of RM 2' of the benchmark (LY2562 BEAR FORT RESET)
Point 3 is located at N 41º 08.383' W 074º 23.479'. There is the stem of a disc at this location, though no disk is reported. This is where I got my highest elevation listing. The bushwhack between Points 2 & 3 is not that bad. Point 3 is too close to Point 2 to put an additional cache. The cache is located a few feet NNW of Point 2, down off the ridge.
