This cache is located in Minekill State Park in North Blenheim, NY. The park is open from 7am to dusk during the summer months and from 7am to 4pm the rest of the year. New as of 2015, there is no charge to use the park or the pool here! The pool complex is open from late June until Labor Day. Enjoy!
At the spot where the river curves,
There is a ledge under the hills.
Just large enough for you to go
This is sure to bring you thrills.
Be careful here on water’s edge,
As you search for your treasure
Find the rock set like a table,
have a snack here for good measure.
