Silly Squirrel Scavenge Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

CTReviewer: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have been looking at caches in the area that have been temporarily disabled for a while now and it looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache. If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link of your cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting. I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,
CTReviewer

Geocache Description:

This cache is located in Housatonic Meadows State Park. I remember coming here with my dad when I was younger. He would play horseshoes or softball, and we would explore the trails and play in the fields. This is also a great section of the river to go rafting down, as I have done that many times!

There are picnic tables, bbqs and lots of room to run around and enjoy a nice day! Cache is available in winter, although would be very difficult under snowfall.

Stage 1 of this micro is a doozie. Or, well it's supposed to be. But don't give up! Stage 2 is very easy, and will most likely be found without much difficulty.

The path to stage 2 is mostly flat--but the ascent to the cache is steep, and possibly slippery due to the amount of fallen leaves, so be careful.

Cache is a small lock-n-lock container with room for small trade items. Original contents include a handmade Cornwall map magnet to remember your adventure.

$10 gas card (XtraMart card) for the FTF.
