Geocache Description:


Please note the coordinates above do not bring you to the cache. They bring you to a nearby area along the CMP Powerlines called "Four Corners" where various Snowmobile trails meet. How you get there is up to you. View the Waypoints section for suggested parking areas.

Cache Info.
You are looking for a standard ammo container in a forest setting off of the CMP Powerlines. This cache will bring you to a favorite spot of mine. You will be near a small clearing area. During the summers I love to come here at night and watch the stars. The views of the Greater Portland area at night are phenomenal. During the day, it is a quiet spot to relax. Please hide the cache better than how you found it - you will understand when you find it. This is winter accessible in the sense that you can get near the cache by Snowmobile, but there is some digging required at ground zero depending on the snow pack. Enjoy!
