Geocache Description:

This is a 2 part cache located in the conservation area surrounding the Mill Pond Reservoir in Burlington.

The first part of the cache is non-traditional - just some poles. The second part is the traditional cache where the treasure and log book can be found. The cache itself is a small clear plastic container. It is a short walk (less than 10 minutes) from the poles to the cache.

At the coordinates given (42°30.960N   71°10.572W), you will find two poles. One of the poles there is black digit with yellow background.

The coordinates of the cache are:

42°30.X33 N   71°10.Y15 W
Where:
         X = the black digit plus one, and
         Y = the black digit minus one
You can get close enough to the poles to see the numbers without leaving the trails, and you can get within about 20 feet of the cache by staying on trails, so a lot of bush wacking is not necessary.

You may find both the poles and the cache without ever seeing Mill Pond. But don't leave yet - take a walk around the reservoir. Trails go all the way around, going over three dams.

Parking is on the side road off of Town Line Rd. in Burlington (42°31.171N  71°10.567W).
