Vischer Ferry Access: Whipple's Center Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

BriGuyNY: After 10 years of activity, I have decided to archive and release this space. When I placed it in 2010, there were only a couple other hides in the preserve; now there are over two dozen, so it has served its purpose.

For now, the companion caches are still in play: Clute's East and Eldert's West, though perhaps in the near future those might also end their story with a similar fate.

Many thanks to everyone who experienced and enjoyed this hide!

Geocache Description:

This is the Center-most access point to the Vischer Ferry Preserve & NYS Game Management Area located at the end of Vanvranken Road.

After recently locating many of the preserve's caches I realized how spectacular this area truly is for multiple uses of recreation and historical education. All of the caches here are some of the oldest in the region and the views are exceptional so I figured that some new start-up caches at the trailheads wouldn't be a bad idea to bring people back and explore. To those who are new to the preserve, welcome. Hopefully this cache will help get your journey started should you be choosing an entrance from the heart of it all.

Before entering, note that the Vischer Ferry Preserve has strict hours posted from 6am-10pm. During one week in the middle of October this area is closed in its entirety except to duck hunters. The week of closure will be noted at the trailhead.

Enjoy your time, and the cache!

Congrats on FTF: loves to fish
