A Cabin in the Woods Traditional Cache

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived” - Henry David Thoreau, Walden

This cache was placed with permission on the grounds of Penn State Altoona's Seminar Forest. The forty-acre forest was purchased by the College in 2008. It serves as a local recreational area, with hiking trails and picnic spots, as well as a place for environmental studies. Additional information can be found here: http://www.altoona.psu.edu/envst/seminarforest.php.

The site now includes a replica of Thoreau's famous cabin in the woods at Walden pond. Please take care to avoid damaging the grounds.
