Geocache Description:


Prepare for landing at the Westfield Airport!


(photo from 1955 by Carl Frank, courtesy of George Manser, source)

The Westfield Airport is one of the abandoned and little-known airfields of New Jersey (get link). For information on other lost airfields in New Jersey see this webpage.

The cache is NOT at the listed coordinates. Do not go there. The listed coordinates are where the Westfield Airport was located before it succumbed to residential housing. Interestingly, the Westfield Airport was not actually located in Westfield ... neither is the cache.

The cache is in a public park near the listed coordinates. There is a lot of muggle activity in this park, so please re-hide the cache better than you found it.

Decipher the message below to determine the appropriate coordinates for landing.
