This cache was hidden for the Maryland Geocaching Society 2018 Summer Picnic.
Susquehanna State Park is full of surprises! I looked down a side trail and saw the cutest little turtle hanging out in the middle of the trail. The turtle has nothing to do with this cache, but I credit him with the inspiration to look further down the trail. I am glad I did - I saw something that was part of our past, but is now considered a relic. Fortunately, geocaching helps us discover pieces of our past that might otherwise be overlooked.
