Geocache Description:

This cache is located off the Taskinas Creek Trail in York River State Park. The trail follows the fringe of the tidal marsh and offers great views.

For those who have never visited, York River State Park is one of the best-kept secrets in Hampton Roads. Be sure to check out the Fossil Beach trail...and stop in at the Visitor's Center. Park at N37 24.825 W76 43.402.

From their web site, "Eleven miles west of Williamsburg, York River State Park offers visitors an opportunity to experience the environment of a coastal estuary. This park is known for its rare and delicate environment, where freshwater and saltwater meet to create a habitat rich in marine and plant life. The main focus of the park is to preserve a portion of York River frontage and its related marshes while providing an area for passive day-use recreation for visitors. York River State Park served as a role model for all of Virginia’s state parks in developing resource management plans. The park’s natural resources make it a significant place for environmental education at all levels." There are numerous trails for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. The park offers fishing and boating opportunities also...

The cache is an ammo can off the main trail...stay on the trail until you are roughly perpendicular to the cache. PLEASE TRADE UP OR TRADE EVEN!
