This cache was originally hidden 10/4/2002 as a multi, called WII-4 Manetto.
I found it in 2011 and enjoyed looking through the old logbook with logs back to the FTF. It had been hidden for ten days & was found by cachers from Massachusettes! That could never happen now!
It had 173 finds and was archived recently when Wayfarer II was no longer able to get to his caches. Here's the original description:
Located near the highest point on Long Island.
Jaynes Hill has a rich history. Walt Whitman was born at its foot and was reputed to have climbed it several times.
It was originally called 'Manetto' by the Indians. It was also called Oakley and High Hill (which is the designation on the USGS Quad). Jayne’s Hill, honors an area pioneer family.
The original contents were the usual trinkets from other caches, and some donations from the kids.
Point of interest for you benchmark hunters - there are a couple of old USGS benchmarks at the top of the hill. They aren't listed online here, but the nearby water tower is.
It's now a traditional cache as the spot where part 1 was hidden, has proximity issues. The original logbooks are still here; enjoy looking at the old logs! The old logbooks got soggy & I had to remove them when container got replaced in 2018. Maybe you've been here before; come on back and enjoy the hill again! Eisenhower dollar for FTF!
