Here's an event cache that offers something unique beyond the meet-and-greet or the wine-and-dine this winter. Join fellow geocachers and friends for this third annual event and enjoy a little winter outdoors – a winter nature hike.
Date: Saturday, February 12 2011
TIME: 1:00 PM Hike begins
PLACE: Buttinger Nature Center of the Stony Brook-Millstone Watershed Association
That's right, you're not in Kansas anymore! Join us for this hike on the Reserve of the Stony Brook-Millstone Watershed Association. Hike out onto the Reserve with Naturalist and Education Director Jeff Hoagland, getting an insider’s view of winter. Bring binoculars or field guides if you wish as we explore forest and meadow. The hike will be followed by some hot cider and apple cider donuts. To claim this cache you will have to join (and enjoy!) the nature hike which will be less than two miles. Hike will be adjusted for weather conditions. You will learn about winter ecology - meeting winter birds, searching for voles, looking for signs of fox, admiring winter weeds, and other crazy things naturalists do. There are additional caches in the area which can be claimed before or after the event, both on the Reserve and in the neighboring countryside of Hopewell Township, Pennington, Hopewell, Blawenburg and more. Watch for new caches.
Please bring a newbie friend on the hike and share the joy! Snowfall or snow cover will turn this event into a tracking adventure. Heavy snow or ice could cancel - check here on the morning of the event. This cache is certified Central Jersey!
