Geocache Description:


Letterbox cache - DO NOT TAKE THE STAMP

Cache is not at the posted coordinates. 

Daylight hours only!

Follow these directions to find the cache:

  1. The posted coordinates should put you on a trail in front of an informational sign about the Cumberland Valley Rail Trail.
  2. According to the sign, in what year was the Troop Train Disaster?  Subtract 2, then divide by 10.  Call your answer X.
  3. Continue north-northeast along the trail from the sign for X feet. 
  4. Look for an outcropping of rocks on the right.  At the top of the outcropping is a multi-trunked tree, at the edge of a large field.  The cache is at the base of that tree.

The container is a 35mm film can containing a stamp and log sheet.  Do not take the stamp!  If you wish to stamp the log, you'll need a micro stamp.
