Jeremy: The landscape has changed since I adopted this cache and made this an unsafe place to look for the cache. Time to go.

Geocache Description:

Cache is a small bison tube (so bring a pen) and should be relatively winter-friendly. During daylight hours, you should be fine solo (but keep your eyes out as always in a big city). If searching at night, bring your friends (and a flashlight too if you got it). Also, as an added bonus challenge, see if you can find the secret path to GC31BBG!


Safety is no joke! Living in an urban jungle is tough, especially if you are young and don't know the ropes. Hence, NYC came up with a solution: Safety City! Searching for this cache will bring you to a true gem of urban existence. I'll try to avoid spoiling the surprise too much here, so to hopefully better encourage folks to make the trek here. But finders, please feel free to post pics of S.C.! Note that there are several other Safety Cities around NYC (maybe we can make a series of S.C. caches...).

Aside from Safety City, this area hosts some other fantastic caches, views, Dominican restaurants, and other neat places. So please make sure to explore! The 1 train has a nearby stop at 157th, or hop off the A train at 168th for a short walk to GZ. If driving, parking should be pretty easy.
