Geocache Description:

This cache is part of a "Walk in the Woods" series which is meant to highlight some of the trails in nearby state parks and forests.  Forest Road bisects Cedarville Park and this cache is located near where the road, although closed to the public at this point, exits the southern side of the park.  The cache is located approximately 60 feet from the Plantation (Brown) Trail.  The cache is a small tube so please bring your own pen/pencil.

The clue may make this too easy but may be needed given the number of hiding spots and the accuracy of GPS in the woods.

Parking for the cache is available at Cedarville Pond which can be reached via the unpaved Forest Road.  While this road travels through the area of the park where hunting is permitted, the portion of the Plantation Trail that lies East of Forest Road and this cache are within a non-hunting area of the park.

Cedarville State Forest consists of 3,510 acres and includes the headwaters of the Zekiah Swamp.  The forest includes five marked trails--Blue, Brown, Green, Orange and White--comprising over 19 miles of developed trails.  These trails were constructed in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps.  There is currently a $3.00 per vehicle fee to enter this park.  You may refer to their web site (http://dnr.maryland.gov/publiclands/southern/cedarville.asp) for updated information.  Please observe all park regulations including their hours of operation and the restriction of parking to designated areas. 

This cache was placed with the approval of the Maryland Department of Natural Resources.
