THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES. It is placed along the newly opened Albany-Hudson Electric Trail.
The Albany-Hudson Electric Trail follows the path of the electric trolley line that connected Albany to Hudson from 1899 to 1929. It runs from Rensselaer through East Greenbush, Nassau, the village of Nassau and Schodack in Rensselaer County into Columbia County where it traverses Chatham, Kinderhook, the villages of Valatie and Kinderhook, Stuyvesant, Stockport, Greenport and arrives in Hudson. Details are available on the trail website at www.ahettrail.org.
