Geocache Description:


A night time only 7 tack, single leg multi-cache located in the Berlin state forest. Flashlights required.

The coordinates given are for the initial point for where you will begin your search.  To reach the parking area, turn off of rte. 22, in the town of Berlin, onto southeast hollow rd. and follow it for about one mile to a left onto cowdry hollow rd. and follow it to the parking area.  WARNING: this road gets progressivley rougher as you go, the last three hundred yards are  extremely rough.  Your small car will take a beating but any truck or SUV will be fine.

Once at the parking area(s) you will be looking for a small white (square) reflector in the woods.  When you have located it, you will then be looking for and following yellow (round) fire tacks.  Ignore all (round) white, green or blue tacks, they are put there by hunters.  The final tack(s) in a run will be red, The final is a 30 cal. ammo can and is up off the ground near the last red tack.  Please replace the final as found.

Before leaving the car, mark it on your GPS with a waypoint so you can find your way back.  There are NO tacks to help you back to the car.
