Geocache Description:

This is another nice area that is accessible by boat or via the North Country Trail. Multiple camping spots close by and lots of wildlife, In fact while I was placing this cache a deer walked by not to far away from us.

This cache was placed during the Alleghany 100 Challenge Hike. A 100 mile, a 50 mile, and a 25 mile option were availiable. We opted for the 25 to fully enjoy the trail and our time in the woods.We hiked from Willow Bay - Rt. 346 to CHAPPEL BAY - RT 321 which was almost 25 miles.
The North Country Trail in Pennsylvania runs from the New York State border at the southern end of the Allegany State Park near Salamanca, New York, and south through the Allegheny National Forest. It continues through Cook Forest and southwest through Clarion County, toward Moraine State Park in Butler County, and eventually enters Ohio west of Wampum, PA.
The North Country Trail streches 4600 miles across seven states. New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and North Dakota. All made possible by the hard work of more than 800 volunteers each year. Built and maintained primarily by volunteers of the North Country Trail Association, its planned route of 4,625 miles will make it the longest of the country’s eight National Scenic Trails.
I am posting hints for all the people that are actually backpacking and hiking the trail. The people that are just comming into the trail for a cache or 2 shouldnt need to look at the hints

Please place cache back in the same place that you found it hidden as good if not better then it was when you found it. Thanks!
