Geocache Description:


A short little walk near Winchester Lake on the Hurlbut Field trail.
You can start your hike at the Winchester Lake Boat Launch - N41 54.471 W073 09.197, 
or on Grantville Road at the Winchester Land Trust sign - N41 54.395 W073 08.648
You may need to use a little stealth during the summer.

Property of the Winchester Land Trust. From the trail map:
"Enjoy the walk through Hurlbut Field where the WLT has recently planted native shrubs to attract native insects, birds, and other fauna. The trail starts at the parking pullout on Grantville Rd. and is mown along the edge of the field heading north. The trail then cuts across the field to the forested area. Once in the forest, you will cross a series of bog bridges to reach Lake Winchester. At the lake, you will find the trail that borders the lake perimeter and continues to the Boat Launch. From there, continue along West Road {paved} back to your car. We prefer no dogs between May and September. If you do bring a dog, please stay on the path and use a leash. Please, no bikes."

 

This revived geocache is a small camoed lock-n-lock with a few small trinkets.
Please re-hide as well or better than you found it.
