You do not have to pay to get into the park to find any of the Moreau Lake caches, just park at the Spier Falls Road Parking Lot N 43°14.794’ W073°43.564’ at the Mud Pond Pull Off N 43°14.765’ W073°42.695’or at the Sherman Island Boat Launch N 43°14.945’ W073°44.320’ .
Parking at above coordinates makes for a longer hike but no parking fee. For a much closer hike, go into the park entrance. This goes for "New Bridge” too.
We wanted to place this one at the trail head … but there was no good hiding spot – so, back to the Nature Center it goes … again!
This cache has been placed as part of the New York State Saratoga/Capital District Regional Geocache Challenge. There are 76 geocaches hidden within 18 state parks and historic sites in this park region, and geocachers finding 40 or more will be eligible to receive a 2017 Schoharie Crossing Historic Site commemorative and trackable geocoin. If you are interested in taking the challenge, you can pick up a geocache passport at any of the participating parks and sites or download it at www.nysparks.com
