CFCT-5: Turkey Fields Traditional 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This cache has been archived.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

This is one of a series of three that are being put in to help celebrate Connecticut Trail Days, 2010. You can read up on Connecticut Trail Day 2010 here: (visit link)

The theme for this years trail day is, “Find Your Happy Place!” Most recently it has been this park for my daughter and I. We have been here almost every day for the last couple of weeks. We come here and feed the geese, which at this present time have babies (5/17/10). We have seen two family groups, with a total of 7 goslings amongst them. We have seen wild turkeys 4 or 5 times, and deer on two occasions. The small pond is a great place to catch pumpkin seeds or other little pan fish for the kids. My daughter’s little pink Barbie fishing pole has pulled more than its share out of there. We catch and release, but I am told they stock the pond with trout. Just look for the rock with the large painted fish on it. We are often the only people here, even on weekends. It is truly a beautiful and underused natural resource.

Parking is on McDonald Rd. The parking coordinates are N 41 33.143 and W 072 18.203

Cache 1: CFCT-3: The Giant Wooden Bowl
Cache 2: CFCT-4: VII
Cache 3: CFCT-5: Turkey Fields.

My daughter calls this the "turkey field", because just to the East of the cache, in the field, we have seen turkey's on several occassions. The cache is near the road, so please use caution in your search.

You are looking for a camoflauged recycled prescription bottle.
