Geocache Description:

20 October 2024, 13:30 - 15:30

OK, so I stole the title from someone else's event?  It was catchy and will help promote the event!

So, you've attended GeoCoinFest 2024 in Syracuse, NY.  You were also hoping to get the oldest cache in NY, the Spot.  If only someone would hold an event nearby, like at a convenient parking spot.  Well, here it is!

We will have a pop-up tent, a port-a-potty, some water, and some homemade cookies available.  Bring your water bottles and hiking gear, because it's about .4 mile (.64 km) hike as the crow flies from parking, along trails, to the Spot.  Terrain for the spot is listed as 4.0, but that's if you come up from the bottom to it.  I would think it's about a 3.0 from the top, unless we have inclement weather.  

Also, put this page on a watch list, as I intend to hide a related mystery cache.  I will publish it enough ahead of time for you to solve it.  That will make it a 4-fer (if you also go for the earth cache)!

In Honor of the Spot (mystery)
