Geocache Description:






Local Weather for Nottingham N.H.


•••SAFETY NOTE•••
As with most of my caches, the area around the cache has steep cliffs.
If you brought children, pets & or novice hikers keep an eye on the them, and please also be careful as well!

The cache is located in the Pawtuckaway State Park, on top of one of three mountains.
Your hunt will include steep hikes.

Enjoy the Great Views!


Atop this mountain is a "Big Alien Green Thing". To see what it is... Find this cache.

The cache is a medium sized tupperware container filled with useful items for the young and the old (well, I think they are useful).
To record your visit, there is a logbook, hand drawings are encouraged.
Note no longer a Camera in this one.

No Bushwacking involved. Hiding spot is close to a well established trail.
The cache is well hidden & mostly covered but sharp eyes will see it without digging around.


Driving-Directions/Conditions

Map for Pawtuckaway Mountains in Nottingham N.H.

Enter off NH Route 107 The Road your looking for is Reservation Road, heading North it will be on your right. Signs & road names from there are pretty much non-exsitent but if you use My Custom map linked on this page you should have a good head start.

* If Your Camping at Pawtuckaway you can also access the Mountains from 2 points on the Campground ground access road but it will add 1 to 1 1/2 hours to your hike.
* You could also get there from the Boat Launch but again it's like a 1 hour add to the hike and Parking reachs capacity early.
* Many have came in off Deerfield Rd. but I have heard through others that they can sometimes Ticket so beware.

* The main Access road around the Mountains is NOT plowed in the Winter, it is only partialy maintained in the other 3 seasons but heavy rain can wipe out 3 steep areas (1 near South Mnt & 2 a mile before Round Pond) and there not always quick to repair.
Many small compacts get all the way in on a regular basis.
I would try it, even after heavy rain but that's me, GoodLuck!

* All trails & the Access Road can be ridden by snowmobiles in the winter EXCEPT those trails on North & South Mountain.

Use your GPS to find the closest trail head, park & hunt.
