Geocache Description:

Central Jersey Checkpoint Challenge

Central Jersey Checkpoint Challenge
Checkpoint HOTEL


Welcome to Davidson's Mill Pond Park in South Brunswick Township, Middlesex County, NJ. This cache will fulfill your “HOTEL” requirement for the Central Jersey Checkpoint Challenge.



Davidson's Mill Pond Park is operated by the Middlesex County Parks System, consisting pf 482 picturesque acres. The pond and the waterfall are where a mill was once located. The park has a very popular boat launch ramp and fishing abounds. Also located there is the EARTH Center and the Rutgers Cooperative Extension of Middlesex County (New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station). The entrance to the park is on Riva Ave.

Given the checkpoint name of “HOTEL” I just had to make this cache a TB and Geocoin Hotel. It is a medium cammoed lock-n-lock starting out with lots of TBs, coins and a pathtag. Please do not take a loggable item unless you also have one to leave! There are nice wide maintained trails here. The terrain for this cache is a little hilly right before you get to GZ, just off one of the main trails. On a return trip the cache should be quick and easy to find without a GPS in case you need to drop off that bug or coin that you've held on to a little too long...

PLEASE NOTE:

  • In order to claim one of the 27 CeNeJeGeCa coins that will be available at the Central Jersey Checkpoint Challenge (GC1NJAZ) you MUST include a picture of your signature from EACH of the 26 checkpoint log books in your log on the Central Jersey Checkpoint Challenge cache.
The above requirement is not necessary to log or claim FTF for this cache. FTF prize for this cache is a Central Jersey Geocaching pathtag! NOTE: Congrats to tmmiller and gragedanwyn on co-FTF!

OFFICIAL CJCC INFORMATION

Central Jersey Geocachers are sponsoring the Central Jersey Checkpoint Challenge series. This challenge series is intended to take geocachers on a tour of Central New Jersey (loosely defined as north of 195 and south of 78) while finding caches placed by Central Jersey geocachers. On the tour we hope you will find Central Jersey an interesting and beautiful part of our great state.

This challenge series includes 26 checkpoint caches (naming based on the NATO phonetic alphabet) and the final - Central Jersey Checkpoint Challenge (GC1NJAZ). The 26 checkpoints do not have to be completed in any particular order. See the CJCheckpoint bookmark for the complete list of caches.

Hidden within the 26 checkpoint caches are puzzle pieces (numbers to be used to calculate the coordinates of the final Central Jersey Checkpoint Challenge cache). The puzzle piece located in "CJCC: Hotel" is taped to the underside of the cache container lid. Please write the information down and DO NOT REMOVE it from the cache. It is appreciated if you bring your own paper - don't take any out of the log book.

Complete information on the challenge can be found on the Central Jersey Checkpoint Challenge cache page.

Happy caching and enjoy the Central Jersey Checkpoint Challenge!
