Geocache Description:

You are looking for a Lock & Lock box. It’s hidden in Kittatinny Valley State Park and located about 100 or so feet off the white trail. Keep an eye out for muggles. The trail is frequently used by mountain bikers and occasionally by horseback riders.

The white trial is easy to get to from the parking area. I posted a waypoint for the trailhead. Once on the trail you’ll have an uphill, but short, climb to the cache. Try to use the trail as much as you can and resist the temptation to cut the trail or bushwhack until you really need to.

A word about signal bounce – this park is almost famous for it. I don’t know if it’s the tree cover or the minerals or the landscape or all of the above. So expect some. The coordinates are based on several readings – that should help. There are lots of hiding spots near GZ so I left a few clues (natural items) on the landscape that should spark your geo-sense.

The cache is filled with items related to the USA. The First to Find prize is an engraved medal.
