Patriots' Path stretches from East Hanover which connects with the Lenape Trail in Essex County to Allamuchy Mountain State Park in Sussex County and the Village of High Bridge in Hunterdon County. Any Morris County cacher worth their salt has been on Patriots Path. It is ubiquitous and traverses some of the most beautiful terrain in the county. However, there are some sections that I would bet that most cachers have never been on, nor even know that they exist.
This is the third of a series of caches to highlight these lesser known stretches and give them their due. You can see a listing off all of the caches in the series by clicking on the following link:
Listing of Lost Sections of Patriots Path caches
This section traverses a townhouse complex and abuts a massive retaining wall. Not the most scenic part of the path. But it provides excellent cover for finding a cache. The cache was hidden about a week after a snowfall and this section had not one footprint on it. Sadly, those who live so close don't know what they have
If you are quick, you should be able to park within 100' of the cache. If you want to make a longer go of it, park at Veteran's Park and walk about 0.2 mi to GZ.
