Geocache Description:

Founded in 1964, the Madison Land Conservation Trust (MLCT) was one of the first Land Trusts, both in Connecticut and the nation. This is the second of the 21 trails. My plan is to place at least one cache on each trail to encourage exploration of these wonderfully preserved natural resources in "my own back yard".

Please see the map on the Madison Land Trust website (hyperlink above). For further information about these trails, a book with comprehensive descriptions of each trail is available at the Madison public library and for sale at RJ Julia Bookstore. The container is a small lock-n-lock with multiple goodies, log book and pencil, along with a geocoin grabbed recently in Vermont. This second trail has the same nearby parking as MLCT-1, with the trailhead across the street from one of MLCT-1's trailheads. There is closer access by way of another (so far) unpublished trailhead just south of the powerlines at the northern end of Nortontown Road in Guilford. Although shorter, you must cross the Neck River (which is fairly easy if you know where to cross). This end of the trail is also close to the connection with MLCT trail # 3, so the cache can be approached from this direction as well. There is bow hunting on and around this trail, so don't wear you antler hat! . Congratulations to Wing-It for a quick FTF!
