Geocache Description:

The Old Track Geocache:

A few hundred feet down rustic Ballfield Road lies a hidden geocache near a telephone pole. You may get a bit wet or scratched up, but it'll be all worth it when you find this cleverly hidden geocache.


Backstory:

From the 1882-1997, the Newfoundland Railway ran through the old track, distributing supplies and passengers throughout the island. Today, the track is just a dirt trail, but it's been a big part of myFor all my life, my friends and I have had many great adventures down Ballfield Road and the old track. Whether it's catching frogs, riding bike, or just walking to the store, it's always a great time. We chose this location because of this location's significance to us, and because of the great railroad history behind it. 

Container:

The Geocache can be found in a clear, GLAD brand, square plastic container about 6 inches wide and 2 deep.

How to get there:

From the Main Road, head southeast down Ballfield Road ( Identified by the sign). About 200-300 feet down, near the 4-way intersection, you'll be in the general vicinity of the Geocache.
