Cache In/Trash Out - Steep Hike
|
|
|
To begin hunting for the cache, you'll want to look for the
little parking area just off of Rt 13, south of the blue overhead
bridge, N42 24.979 / W076 31.654. Look for "Coreorgonel" sign at
the parking area. The trail will be right in front of you. You are
looking for a Guinea Pig food container (the picture on the
container goes well with outdoors). This is a
Fossil/Dinosur/Prehistoric cache. You will find some fossils and
amber(fossil resin) in this cache. Most of the amber pieces have
insects in them. If you want some amber or a fossil, please only
take one so others can have a chance at getting a piece. Try to
keep in the theme if you can. During the warm months you'll want to
bring bug spray. Please hide it well after you find it. Enjoy! For
more information on fossils in the area, check out the following
site:
Ithaca Fossils
Also, if you have a chance to poke around, take a tour of the
Paleontological Research Institution. They have an great collection
of fossils. For more information, their website is: Priweb
NOTE: Could be hard to find in winter.
