Geocache Description:

This is a continuation of a previous cache which was archived.  


The original cache at this location was This Old House GCHNJ0. The CO became inactive and late in 2012 it went missing, but it was kept alive by FooFinders who replaced the cache where they had found it previously.

This is not a really difficult cache, but it is well placed and with GPS bounce there were a number of DNFs which triggered a review and it was archived. After that, however, Architech_tonic found it still in place. I got a nudge from them and also found it.

This location is very interesting to me from a historical perspective and also from the way in which it was preserved when the road was upgraded. I decided to continue the cache placement with a new name and some links to background information for your enjoyment.

The cache is accessible from a pull-off on Harriet Tubman Ln on the east side of Cedar Ln. It can also be accessed from the Robinson Nature Center, which is on the west side of Cedar Ln. This is an excellent educational site which includes information about this mill, but it has limited hours and there is a fee.
