Mt Cresson Competing Cache Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Cobble Hillbillies: It seems after a couple of years, the work here is still not complete. The parking area and trailhead are still a bit of a mess, so I guess it’s time to say goodbye to this cache. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to find this cache.

Geocache Description:

A small cache placed near the parking for the Mt. Cresson Trails.

I guess I could have called this a "Gas Saver".  However, I had this idea that I thought I would try.  In October of 2008 I place the Cresson Mt cache, and as of today, it has been found 23 times.  That's not many finds for a cache that is almost 4 years old.  Back when I started caching, most of the caches were hidden in areas that you needed to hike to in order to get your smiley.  As I go through and read the logs for local caches, I notice that a lot of the easier caches, that require shorter walks or that are park and grabs, are found more often then the caches that require a longer hike.  So I am placing this cache to see how quickly it will reach and surpass the number of finds that my Cresson Mountain Cache has. You will have to follow the trail that is right in front of you as you drive in. It is marked with pink ribbons. The cache is about 2 steps off the trail, please bring your own pen. Parking spot is not maintained in the winter, so it may not be winter accessible.
