Geocache Description:

'Oh for shame, how the mortals put the blame on us gods, for they say evils come from us, but it is they, rather, who by their own recklessness win sorrow beyond what is given' - 'Zeus'


This part of the odyssey brings you to Troy Meadows Park in Parsippany, NJ. This tract of land is owned by a private land conservancy and is mostly trailess.

The geocache is a screw top container capable of holding some swag or TBs. I hope you all have fun searching for this one just as I enjoyed hiding it. If you locate better coordinates please post them, I tried my best to obtain the present coordinates.

The walk to the cache may be considered a bushwack (it's a .1 off of the trail) there may be a few fallen trees, but no high grass in your way (nothing you can't navigate around). After you find this cache try treking around the park and finding some of the other caches located in the area. On this side of the park there appears to be only one trail that terminates not so far in to the woods but if you want to - try exploring the park as much as you can, it's a beautiful forest. The hint may be a bit of a spoiler for some of you.

BTW: This is a BYOP and it might help if you bring something flat to write on. FTF gets a silver mercury dime from 1943. Congratulations to BrewmanPete+Shelly for FTF!!!

Happy hunting!
