Geocache Description:


This cache was hidden as part of the
2017 Are You Geocacher Enough? Road Rally


This cache is hidden near the home of Russell Clifford Durant that burnt to the ground before it was ever occupied. While painters had taken a into town for more paint to finish the grape vines inside "Durant's Castle", their turpentine rags caught fire and the Castle was a complete loss.  The land they owned, aprox. 2,600 acres, is now a state nature preserve, The Mason Tract. If you’re a fly fisherman, this is the Holy Grail of Trout Fishing. The foundation remained open until the late 80's or early 90's. We used to be able to explore the open foundations and rooms of the basement. Yet today, you will find a picnic area and information posted on the filled in foundation of the Castle. The cache is hidden behind the ruins of what is described as part of the servant's quarters
