Geocache Description:

Black bison tube, bring your own writing instrument.


>

Patriots' Path stretches from East Hanover where it 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 12th 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:

Cache is located on the Whippany River as it abuts George Gramby Memorial Park and replaces another LSPP cache that I had in this park. This park is an oasis in the neighborhood known as "The Hollow" due to its location between two hills. Mr. Gramby was a leader in the community who started programs to help those struggling with substance abuse. The park hosts a annual George Gramby Day festival in his honor.

Most of the time, you should be able to search without too much trouble. The Whippany River is stocked in this area so searching in season will be a bit more difficult. Parking available on Abbett Ave. at the provided waypoint.
