This cache container came all the way from California in 2015. It is a Coulter Pinecone. In it's infancy when still on the pine tree, it is called a "widow maker" You'll understand when you see the size of this baby.
The cache can be accessed from the OLD Blue Trail in Green Lane Park. When you come to the directional arrows from the designated parking lot, take the path into the woods and not the mowed trail that goes around and up onto the ridge. That portion of the Blue Trail is closed during winter. Once you reach GZ, there will be no PI or bushwhacking. Please rehide carefully and beware of muggles. BYOP.
Hope this cache lasts awhile so everyone can be amazed like I was! It is still pretty prickely but has mellowed some.
Permission for this geocache has been granted by Montgomery Department of Parks.
