Geocache Description:

Located in Newport News, VA. Cache is a clear tupperware type container.

* This Cache is disabled due to vandalism. I will reactivate once cleaned up and moved.

The cache is located in a seldom used section of the Mariner’s Museum Park. The area is about 100 acres of heavily wooded forest. It lies northeast of the main park across Warwick Boulevard. I found the best place to park is in the parking lot of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church. (N37° 03.177 W076° 28.380) Walk NW approximately 2000 feet along Gatewood Road to the trailhead. (N37° 03.406 W076° 28.652) There are old "no trespassing" signs posted, but the updated sign advises that the area is open for recreation between sunrise and sunset. I called to verify; no mountain biking is allowed, and they requested that dogs remain on a leash. Bring some water and good hiking shoes. (and insect repellant of course)
