Geocache Description:

Along a 1.42 mile walking loop that is paved with a few other caches along the way if you so choose to find them also.

A groom is a person who is responsible for some or all aspects of the management of horses and/or the care of the stables themselves. 
The word appeared in English as grome c.1225, meaning "boy child, boy, youth" but nobody knows whence.

The meaning "man servant who attends to horses" is from 1667 although females are grooms too. The verb is first attested in 1809; the transferred sense of "to tidy (oneself) up" is from 1843; the figurative sense of "to prepare a candidate" is from 1887, originally in U.S. politics.

The groom has hidden the cache within the mane of the pine near the path.
