Geocache Description:

DO NOT APPROACH FROM THE TOP, do not approach from the top, follow the trail all the way until ground zero. besides being safer- you can see waterfalls, and the cave. ammo can, sign long, replace as found. do not remove the stamp and ink pad. this is a letterbox and a geocache. add your stamp to the log book. Also this area has no cell coverage so you'll need your GPS>

DO NOT APPROACH FROM THE TOP. This is a hidden gem on Green Mountain. Oh the residents have been enjoying it for a long time but just now thanks to a generous donor who lives on Green Mountain, this is now accessible to all. It's a beauty. I love to hike here in the spring or after a big rain. It's just cool. 

DO NOT approach from the top. Follow the trail all the way around to ground zero. It's steep in several places but you can see waterfalls and the actual cave. Though not really a cave I think it's more a bluff but it's massive. Please replace as found. Trade up. And mind the terrain rating. 

This is a 3.5 mile round trip hike. creek crossing and bluffs so mind your kids. Both the red and blue trails lead to this cache so you can take your pick. Thank you to the landtrust for providing new trails to the waterfalls.

Also this area has no cell coverage so you'll need your GPS>
