Geocache Description:

Located in Wilbour Woods in Little Compton, RI. This area can be muddy at times--wear appropriate footwear, and bring insect repellent in season. The walking is easy, and the spot is truly beautiful. Bring a picnic!


From the north, take RI route 77 (Main Road) south through Tiverton to Little Compton. Approximately 6.2 miles south of Tiverton Four Corners (Gray's Ice Cream, The Provender) turn left on Swamp Road. This is an easy turn to miss. The road is on the left, but watch for the small sign on the right. Drive about a quarter-mile on Swamp Rd, and watch for the entrance to Wilbour Woods on the left. This is also easy to miss; watch for a wooden sign hung between two trees. Follow the entrance road a short distance to a tee. Turn left. This road is a one-way loop with turn-outs to picnic areas. Find one of these areas and park. Then continue walking in the same direction you were driving, and watch your GPSr. The cache is a short distance off the road.

Please carefully replace the camouflage material to conceal the Rubbermaid container.

When you are done, do yourself a favor and walk the rest of the loop, which isn't long. It's a beautiful stroll through the woods along a meandering trout stream.

Accessibility in snow - May be difficult in deep snow.
