Geocache Description:

The actual starting location for this cache is the PARKING area and not the posted coordinates...[ this due to the fact that two night caches [ way back ]...where started from the same parking area and a final cache location coordinate not possible to post.]

Due to the complexity of maintaning this cache..it now has been greatly simplified.....was 9 stages but now only one..just go find the last amo can for the coordinates to the final.May the caching force be with you.... This cache is located on the Wolfpit Land Preserve in Bethel Connecticut. You will find the entrance to the park on a driveway to the right of mailbox for number 43 Wolfpits Road. There is parking for 2 cars at a time. For best results, pull into the driveway and then back into the parking area (it can be hard to turn around).

For more information see: Wolfpit Preserve.

Notes for this cache:
  • Please print and display the attached Parking Permit for night time caching.
  • This cache is called "By Twilight" for a reason. This is a night cache but is best started an hour or more before sunset so you do not need to do the whole series at night.
  • Standard TOTT are REQUIRED for this cache
  • It takes about 3 hours to complete if you do not get stuck on any one stage. Start EARLY!
  • It is about a 3.5 mile hike to complete this cache.
  • Night caching can be dangerous, please NEVER cache at night alone.
  • Some sections are wet and there is some climbing hillside required: wear hiking boots.
  • The CO's can and will update the stages so don't count on PAF working.
  • On the way back to the Parking area, see if you can find Willie the Wolf's Pits cache if you have not already found it.

Starting location of this multi-stage cache is:


41 22.062 73 22.816 parking area


Procedure at each stage of this cache:

  • Go to the given location which is ALWAYS on or near a trail in the park. This is a virtual location, there is no physical container here.
  • From this location, use a bright flashlight to locate a large orange glint. There is an orange glint located in the parking lot as an example of the glints you are to find.

  • Please ignore white or red glints you may find from the old series. See examples below:

  • Go to location of the orange glint and within 20 feet of this glint you will find a container/micro station with the address of the next stage [Some classic Zurcher stuff here].
  • Go to the next virtual location and repeat the process until you reach the final. The intent is for you to stay on the YELLOW and BLUE trails while moving from one virtual location to another. [No need to walk thru any swampy parts of the park].
