Geocache Description:

Through the years New York and New Jersey have shared many wonders. Now for the first time these two states share one multi-cache.

This is the most physically demanding cache we have hid yet, it may be the most physically demanding cache in New Jersey yet.

The first half of this two part multi-cache is in Abram S. Hewitt State Forest, NJ. The second and final part is in the Appalachian Trail (AT) corridor in New York State. The two parts are about 2 mile away from each other as the crow flies or between 2.5 to 3 miles away as the human or dog walks. Both are located near trails.

Recommended reference for this hike is NYNJTC Trail Map 21. The Appalachian Trail Map Set Map 4 for New York/New Jersey also covers this area but does not show the access trails as well. Both these are available at www.nynjtc.org as well as in many sporting good stores in the area. The first cache is an 8 oz water bottle, the second a two litter plastic screw top container. Our trademark bottle of spring water is next to each cache. The water is available to the first thirst cacher.

WARNING - THIS IS NOT A CACHE AND DASH. BE PREPARED TO SPEND MORE TIME THAN USUAL FOR THIS CACHE. WE HIKED ABOUT 10 MILES TO INSTALL THIS CACHE. THERE IS A SHORTER ROUTE BUT IT MAY BE MORE DEMANDING.
