Taylor Mill Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

GeoWonders: I think the cache will be shut down for the fall/winter.
There are quite a few caches in the area that will lead to Taylor Mill, so there is still lots of fun to be had and plenty of chances to see the Mill!. The cache may re-surface in the spring, or maybe a new site will appear!

"The Taylor Sawmill is situated on the 71-acre Ballard State
Forest in Derry, New Hampshire. Robert Taylor, for whom the
mill is named, bought the property in 1799 and began operating
an "up and down" sawmill similar to the current one about 1805.
We are not sure of exactly when this mill stopped running."

Follow the trail across the dam, along the east/north side of the pond.
The container is a large plastic pretzel rod jar.
