PET: Pennsylvania Explorers Trail. Let's celebrate our past and future explorations. This trail is intended to appeal to those who love Challenge caches, but also offers a Traditional between each pair of Challenges for those who prefer Traditional caches. For each Challenge cache there is a built-in checker to confirm you meet the qualifications for that cache. You can ride your bike, jog, or walk along the Chester Valley Trail. Bring your geodog on a leash if you'd like (don't forget to scoop), however be aware of the heavy bike and jogging traffic along the trail.
The Chester Valley Trail (CVT) is 14.7 miles in length, and the trail is ADA accessible, although many of the caches would be difficult to access from a wheelchair. Chester County is working to extend the trail an additional 5 miles to the west into Downingtown to connect to the Struble Trail, and Montomery County is planning to extend the trail eastward into Norristown to offer access to the Schuylkill River Trail. The CVT is open from 8 AM to sunset and may be closed due to icy/snowy conditions. During substantial snowstorms the trail may be open to cross-country skiers, but snowmobiles and all other motorized vehicles (except motorized wheelchairs) are prohibited.
Permitted parking coordinates at several locations are provided.
Perhaps you have to be of a certain age, but we certainly are. Milton ___? Creeper? (Perhaps even Kudzu; it's hard to tell in the winter.) Tree? This should be easy to spot where all these hints come together. DO NOT remove the log keeper (straw).
