Geocache Description:

Winnona State Forest, Check the Trail Map at the parking area off Wart Rd.

Winona State Forest


This reforestation land with 9,233 acres was once farmland, and during the late 1930's and 1940's, men from the Civilian Conservation Corps planted evergreen trees, built roads, ponds, and buildings on this land.
Around 1980, three people met to discuss a trail system, including cross-country ski racing, as this area on the Tug Hill Plateau has the biggest snowfall east of the Rockies. The trails became known as the Tug Hill Tourathon Trails. Each year since then, new trails have been added. Much volunteer work went into this project and an increased presence of the Operations crew of DEC, with their heavy equipment and manpower, has made these trails what they are today.

The Cache is a standard ammo box about 40 yds off a trail.
Bring DEET, Winona grows industrial sized mosquitos.
