Cache is a 30 MM ammo can in the woods that is hidden in your typical South Western Pennsylvania setting.
I took this ammo can with me today while I was doing a maintenance run on my other cache in these woods - GC1D11P - Neville Woods, just in case I needed to replace the final stage. Once I got to the final stage of Neville Woods, and not needing to replace it, I had a full ammo can with me and was itching to place it. I started to walk away while watching the coordinates move to make sure I got far enough away to meet the requirements. After I was a tenth of a mile away from the final stage, I brought up stage 2 for Nevilles and noticed that I needed to go a bit further. Once I was clear both coordinates, it was placement time. I found the hiding spot and placed the cache.
You will be walking along a series of trails in the woods that were cleared out a one of the local Boy Scouts as an Eagle Scout project. All trails are fairely visible for usage, except for a section of trail that does not seem to get used much anymore. There are several large trees that are down this section of trail, but you can easily either go around them or over them. You will be going up very rapidly in elevation when you find this cache as there are several steep climbs, hence the name of the cache. You will climb some 350 feet in elevation as you work from parking up to the cache site.
Beware of muggles on some of the other sections of the trail. There are a lot of signs of ATV use in these woods, so keep an ear out for them. I am not sure if there is any hunting up here, but be sure to wear blaze orange if hunting this one down during the hunting season. I suggest a good sturdy hiking stick will be your friend to rest on as you make the climb up into the hills. You will hear the occasional gun shot, but that is from the sportsman's club that is nearby.
As always, place the cache back as you found it. Enjoy!
