Geocache Description:


I was in the area for my annual pre-event trip and wanted to place a few new hides before the event. I found this to be a good spot.

Fort Stark Historic Site is located on a peninsula historically called Jerry's Point on the southeast corner of New Castle Island. It overlooks the Piscataqua River, Little Harbor and the Atlantic Ocean. Fort Stark was named in honor of John Stark, commander of N.H. forces at the Battle of Bennington (1777). An unmarked walking trail traverses the ten-acre fort site. Please visit with caution! Fort Stark is a former military installation. Beware of dangers of unprotected stairs, high walls, rough ground and slippery rocks. Adult supervision of children is required.

Pets are NOT PERMITTED on the premises. 

Cache is a large painted preform bottle containing only the log. Nothing else is likely to fit inside as the log book (a fan out book) pretty much fills the container. If you are at the right angle, it can be seen from above, but can only be accessed from the side. There is no need to move any rocks, sticks, twigs, leaves or branches, and there is no need to climb on anything. At least, not at the time the cache was placed. But I don't expect any drastic changes in this area.

Please return container as found, but don't push it too far in, making it impossible to reach.
