Geocache Description:


This year marks the 100th Anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA). The BSA theme this year is "Get Into the Game" based on Geocaching. Many states are participating in the Cache to Eagle Series. (CTE) (visit link)

Vermont is participating with three geocaches hidden in each of our BSA Districts:;

Ethan Allen District - Serving Addison, Bennington and Rutland Counties.

Calvin Coolidge District - Serving Windsor and Windham Counties.

Three Rivers District - Serving Chittenden, Franklin,Grand Isle and Western Lamoille counties.

Long Trail District - Serving Orleans, Essex, Caledonia, Washington and Orange Counties.

Each of the 12 geocaches is placed near a local Eagle Project. (visit link)
There are hundreds of Eagle Projects throughout Vermont and we are hoping to showcase more than the 12 that are part of this series.

The Eagle Project in Green Mountain National Forest in Clarendonhas had several Eagle projects done there over the last 15 years or so. They have all been to the Clarendon Shelter on the Adirondack / Long Trail. The shelter itself dates back at least to 1970. It is a very nice shelter. I have stayed there myself, and appreciate all the hard work it takes to maintain such a shelter.. These are just a few of the projects done there by Troop 113;

15 yrs ago - Derek Congdon -; replaced the 4x4 posts for the shelter and new signs

12 yrs ago - Ed Wasserman -; moved the outhouse

9 yrs ago - Gary Gregory - ripped off old roof and re-shingled it and put in a couple of water bars

6 yrs ago -Nick Flanders - new floor and bench and refurbished table tops

About the Cache

The cache may be a little harder to find than I intended. It is a Tupperware container about 8"x8". It is just off a logging road within eyesight of the shelter.
You can hike up the trail directly across the street from the parking cords. FTF prize is a Get Into the Game geocoin from (visit link)
