This cache has been archived.

OReviewer: As there's been no cache to find for a long time or has had no owner response for at least 30 days, I'm archiving it to keep it from showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Geocache Description:

Easy hike on the old railroad bed.

Was dying to get out and place a new cache after the winter lag. This is in Milltown, PA on a long gone railroad bed. I lived out past where I placed this cache as a kid 26 years ago for a summer. I used to ride my bike to get to town thru here and at night my friend and I would go fishing in the swamp. Can't remember if we ever caught abything but we always had a blast. To get to the cache just park off the road in one of the turnoffs just past the swamp. The entrance to the trail that you will go on is open and has no posted signs at it. There used to be a railroad crossing here and they took it out over 20 years ago and this is actually the old railbed. Don't go on the trails that have posted signs. You'll see alll kinds of waterfowl in here and lots of deer. I would avoid it here during PA deer season. It's a nice little hike and I rode my mountain bike in and it is nice for that also. Talked to a local older man out walking for about a half an hour and he said it is great hiking and he uses the trail all the time. I was in a hurry so there really isn't anything in the cache but a log, a pencil and a pencil sharpner. I'll head out and add some goodies to it soon. Enjoy and happy Geocaching!
