My boys liked doing the Rocket Spot geocache so much that they wanted to do another, behind their school.
Park in the school visitor lot off Shore Acres Road and follow the bikes trail, which starts at 39-02.811N 076-29.073W.
The cache is a Gadgetman standard - margarita bucket filled with CD and tape music, paperback books, kid toys, and other goodies. In the fall, you won't sneak up on much wildlife due to the crunchly leaves, but in the spring, you will find deer, squirrel, and lots of birds.
Crossing the streams, you could get muddy, so boots are recommended, and there are some steep ravines. This is a very nice hike with lots of visibility and not many brambles.
After you find the cache, if you're feeling adventurous, hack your way through the prickly hedge ahead of you for 100 yards to these two interesting sites:
- Ruins 39-02.803N 076-29.269W
-
Ancient 30-foot-deep well (don't fall in!) 39-02.803N 076-29.283W
