Geocache Description:

Located in Lincoln Woods/Jericho Hill Area of Waltham.

It amazes me when I see what Mother Nature does and the force she can exert oh-so incrementally….You will see an example of her power at the location of this cache.

If you have done my Jericho Hill caches you are familiar with the area, terrain and the recommended parking spot.

The easiest access is at the end of Larchmont Ave. in the Lakeview section of Waltham. (See cords below) The trail entrance is close to houses so be respectful of driveways etc. ACCESS DAWN TO DUSK ONLY! Although you may “see” other access points, be mindful of private property. DO NOT PARK IN THE ESPOUSAL CENTER. on Lexington St. There are some liability issues with the management.

There is no need to bushwhack…the trails are well traveled and although you may think it’s a long way around, the trek is enjoyable…..resist the urge to “cut the bias” or bushwhack.

I have tried to place this cache clear of any nasty elements, but bug spray is always recommended …except in January. Snow may pose a problem finding this one. You are looking for a 5” round cammo’d lock ‘n lock, just off the trail. Room for small items and trackables. Bring a pen. PLEASE RE-HIDE WELL!

Although the area has been cleaned up you may find an opportunity for some CITO…bring a bag. Oh yes…

Unregistered trackables for FTF and STF.

Cache Happy! Congrats to GW0143, looks like he’s back in FTF form.
