Geocache Description:

There is a geological marker at the location that is marked with four rocks. The marker may be under leaves. This marks the highest point in town. Can be wet in the spring with bugs in the summer.

Update August, 2022- Lots of new surprises for the kids! I need to go back and add a new logbook, but there is a piece of paper in the meantime. A gate to keep vehicles out of the area has been installed. People who own the land where the geocache is located are still okay with people walking in. There has been a lot of vehicle traffic and vandalism in the area, so they put in the gate. Park along the main paved road at the following coordinates ( N 43 16.60', W 070 40.924) then hike in along the dirt road. There really is no specified parking area, just along the side of the road. Do not park on the dirt road as that is someone's driveway. Please be respectful. Stay to the right at the first fork then go straight past the gate when the road forks left and right towards the houses. Once you get close you will need to do some bushwacking to get to the coordinates. A long time ago, the stories say, this was a place for a spotting tower where lookouts watched for enemy submarines. This area is what was, long ago, the village of Tatnic, although still part of Wells. It was an area with few trees and much farming as evidenced by the stone walls commonly found while walking through the woods. Many have questioned whether it is high enough to see the ocean for lookout purposes. Remember, the trees you see now were almost non-existent and there was a tower. For another great place to scope out go to the following coordinates on your way home. I won't tell you any more than that, you will understand when you get there. (N 43 16.771' W 070 40.676')
