There are no cows eating or any corn growing at this spot anymore. The Town of Ellington used to be mostly farm land. But now, not so much. But nowadays, at least there are geocaches to find!
We have given you the trailhead parking coordinates for a nice riverside walk. The trail from there could be wet during times of high water or after rain. Follow the trails and they will bring you to within 15 feet of the cache.
As an alternative, you can park within 300 feet of the cache area by using the sports fields parking lot on Pinney Street -- if the gate is open. The geocache is located just fifteen feet off of a lightly traveled trail -- BUT there will be some easy bushwacking required to get to the cache. Maybe you will see an old poison ivy vine. Maybe your boots will get wet.
If you are expecting a park and grab, sorry. This geocache hunt requires you to take a walk out in the great outdoors, so enjoy yourself! Geocaching is meant to be fun!! We are big believers in CITO - Cache In Trash Out. If you see any litter, please remove it and dispose of it properly --thanks!
This area used to be called the Santini Conservation Park. It was a nice little place, really just an open field with a hunk of trees. At the time this cache was placed, the area was still undergoing the transformation from farmland and woods to open space and trails. But this land has been developed now, into soccer fields for all to enjoy!
