How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

Two stage cache. Coordinates given get you to stage one, which provides the coordinates to the final cache location. Final cache is in a nearby park. For stage 1 parking, you can park on the street. Once you move on to the final cache, there are 4 parking lots from which to choose. Some will give you a long walk, one is within a few hundred feet. Drive around the block.

The first stage will get you the coordinates to the final stage. It is a micro. Beware of booby traps left by geese. You can bring some bread to feed the ducks and geese while sitting on a bench at this nice, quiet, community pond.

Once you find stage 1, use the coordinates to find the actual cache, which is an ammo can. It is located in a nearby park. Depending on where you park at the park, the cache can be a quick find or a long walk.

If you take or leave anything, please put all items in ziplock bags. Everything in the cache is in one, so just switch items, also, there are some extra bags in there to keep stuff dry.

Original contents of caches includes:
Final Cache:
logbook with pencils, new calculator, markers, play dough, colored pencils, dictionary, silly putty, magnifying glasses, smiley erasers, metal loop puzzles, and extra bags.

We did some shopping, and back to school stuff was on sale, hence all the school related items. Most items are brand new in packages, so they should all be nice when you find them. Please replace them with other well wrapped and safe items. And as usual, please be sure to replace it in a well hidden spot.

The second leg of the hunt will take you through some poison ivy and prickers, so be ready.

First hint is for first stage, the rest for the final cache.

***CACHE UPDATE 10/23/04***
After replacing the map several times lately due to rain and flooding, we decided to eliminate it. So, there is no longer an actual container at the first location, but there is something there that you must find for the next set of coordinates. If you've been to Goshenville Gamut then you may know what to look for!

Also updated the hints a bit.
