The Cache: This hide was inspired by
Boscobaby's Big Bloo Bukkit a giant among caches! This cache
hopes to join the Bukkit Bergade one day when he gets a little
bigger. He might not be as big as the Blue Bukkit but he's still
very large for a Geocache so you shouldn't have any trouble finding
it. The hike & hide are kid friendly and the cache will happily
hold all but the largest of swag & TBs. Like the other caches
in this series, the lid is internally threaded and twists off. Be
sure to twist it back on tightly and then rebuild the camo to keep
the cache safe. Depending on how you approach GZ you may encounter
ticks & poison ivy but they are light in comparison to other
areas of the park. In the Spring/Summer you will encounter flies
& mosquitoes so be sure to protect your skin. The hide is
above the marsh but enjoy the view and the hunting osprey!
The Location: Welcome to Cheesequake State Park's
Arrowsmith Point! Ample parking is available at the Spring Hill
picnic area (a favorite of the NYC/North Jersey folk who want to go
to a park but can't bear to be without traffic noise) or, for a
longer hike, at the park & ride off of GSP exit 120 (a favorite
of the Central Jersey folk who want to live here but have to work
in NYC/North Jersey). From Memorial Day through Labor Day there is
a fee to enter the park from the main gate but not from the Park
& Ride. The campground & restrooms are open during the
summer but the picnic area is available year round. For more Big
Cache Action, check out this

This cache is certified Central
