Fool's Gold Traditional Cache

Short hike with some short steep ups and downs to this traditional cache near Pyrites.
This traditional cache is called "Fool's Gold" after the mineral pyrite for which the town was named. During this short hike, keep an eye out for this mineral in some of the rock outcroppings.
Parking is on Co Rt 21 (Hermon-Pyrites Rd.) where the bridge crosses the river. The trail heads Southeast along the river to a local gathering place and swimming hole.
Cache is a gallon-sized brown Tupperware container. This is my very first geocache so I loaded it up with lots of items to trade, and a FTF prize. (And of course a log book.)
Enjoy!
*Congrats to Gringo871 for being the FTF! Gringo's caches are some of my favorites, and usually much more tricky to find than this!
The GPS does seem to jump around a lot in this area for whatever reason, I tried to get as much of an accurate average as I could, but be prepared to search around a bit.
So glad my first cache is being enjoyed, happy hunting to all!
