Beginning with the summer of 2019, PAGA (Pittsburgh Area Geocachers Association) has decided to start to honor those members that have reached a caching milestone. The second installment of PAGA Honors has wrapped up with the conclusion of 2019. This segement started on September 1st and went to December 31st. This second cache, that is being placed in Harrison Hills Park, is honoring 4 more of our members that reached milestones over the summer. Those members that reached a milestone during the fall are:

The geocache that you are searching for in Harrison Hill Parks. The cache is a regular sized clear plastic ammo container geocaching label on the outside. The cache is located along the red blazed trail. But you will need to leave the trail to make this find. It is about 100 to 110 feet off the trail. It is a typical woodlands hide for southwestern Pennsylvania. You will be tempted to take a short cut to this cache, but it is highly not recommended. You will be going through thick under brush, numerous thorns, over many down trees, and not have a really good experience. I highly suggest you park closer to the trail head and walk the trail in. If you choose to go the harder way, you are upping the terrain rating by a full star. You have been warned! Please re-hide the cache as you found it. There are some trade items inside, as well as the log book. Remember to sign the log book, because any log that says they did not sign it, will be deleted. There is a pen with the log book! This is the only rule that we have for our game.
