Geocache Description:

Benjamin Rush State Park is located on the site of the old Byberry Farms portion of the former Philadelphia State Hospital. Entrance is on the north side of Southampton Road through a driveway shared with the Delaware Valley Veterans Home.








This cache will take you over to the northern trail and through a shady canopy of trees. It is placed not very far "Into The Woods". A small, well camoed container with a few kid friendly trinkets, a GEO buck (GEO Washington dollar coin), trackable Signal FTF Micro Geocoin for the first finder. Please trade accordingly.

This is a "passive" park, meaning primarily for the enjoyment of the natural habitat. No picnic tables or playgrounds here. Just meadows and wooded areas with a few multi-use trails. We've been working with the managing Park Ranger, for a few months, coordinating placement of caches in the park. He's very serious about maintaining the natural environment, so, PLEASE stay on the trails and NO cross country hiking across the newly planted and established meadows. We don't want to wear out our Geo welcome with new Geo trails. This cache is very near one of the new trails.

Congrats to Stephybear and doparo on their shared FTF!
