Geocache Description:

This is the 3rd in a series of 4 caches along the Abandoned PA Turnpike east of Breezewood.

The cache is located just east of Breezewood along the old route of the PA Turnpike. The 10 mile section of roadbed has been turned into a bike trail. This trail contains 2 old roadway tunnels that that you may bike thru (you will need bike lights).

The cache is located where there was once a West bound turnpike rest stop / Howard Johnsons. If you look in the woods bordering the area you can see old brickwork in the Howard Johnsons colors.

Site Access ~ Walking
1- Park at the end of the un-named road loacated at:
40* 02.9748
-78* 05.93699
Go past the yellow barricade which will take you to the area of cache #3. From there you can follow the old turnpike uphill to caches #3 & #4, then walk thru the tunnel to get to #1. This is less overall walking then parking at the other end.

Site Access ~ Biking
There has been some changes in access to the site. Please refer to: (visit link)
for the most up to date information on trail access. This cache is at the western end of the bike trail, and currently only the western trailhead is open for access. There are other ways to access the site, but that is up to you to figure out :-).
