Geocache Description:

Cache Location: Stonetown Circular Trail (Red Triangle), Tory Rocks Property

Cache Type: Lock & Lock


Cache is hidden along the moderately difficult Stonetown Circular Trail with total distance of 9.6 miles and elevation gain of 2370 ft. The eastern part of the trail takes you over the rugged summits of Windbeam, Bear and Board Mountains. From the top of the summits you get views of the Wanaque and Monksville Reservoirs, the Wyanokies, and Ringwood State Park. The western section of the Stonetown Trail takes you over Harrison Mt and the famous Tory Rocks. This is the area the Tory Soldiers used as hideouts during the American Revolutionary War. After passing the Tory Rocks you come to Signal Rocks were you get views of Windbeam Mt.

Closest available parking for this cache is at Mary Roth Drive (Stonetown Recreation Area). Access to the Stonetown Circular Trail is possible here by following the red triangle blazes north along Stonetown Road. The cache is hidden on the side of a steep hill with excellent views towards both Little Windbeam and Windbeam Mountain.
