GCM132 Scrat's Stash I (Saddle River) (Multi-cache) in New Jersey, United States created by GeoKender

This cache has been archived.

Pofe: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have been looking at caches in the area that have been temporarily disabled for a while now and it looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache. If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link of your cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks,

Geocache Description:

This multi-stage geocache is located within Saddle River County Park system, Bergen County, NJ.

This multi-stage geocache utilizes three (3) parks all along the Saddle River County Park system, Bergen County, NJ. These parks are Wild Duck Pond (Ridgewood), Dunkerhook (Paramus) and Grove Street Park (Ridgewood).

Park in any of the Wild Duck Pond (Ridgewood) parking areas.

This multi-stage geocache is accessible using the paved walking/biking trail, running parallel along the Saddle River, southeast of the Wild Duck Pond area. This multi-stage geocache is centered around the very popular Saddle River paved path. A perfect way to spend an afternoon with family. This trail is especially easy for the little one's. You may decide to bike this, I did. But anything less than an ATB won't get you past the paved walk. The limit of THIS multi-stage is the Dunkerhook Park footbridge. From here, you are on your own. Naming this cache was quite easy since my favorite animated character has got to be "Scrat", the very spirited, squirrel/rat from the animated movie "Ice Age". When I placed every stage to this geocache I definately felt like the high-strung, furry character "Scrat" hoarding his acorn stash.

First stage begins in Wild Duck Pond. All the multi-stage caches are 'Decon' boxes and one Lock&Lock. Within these 'Decon' boxes are coordinates to the next stage. The geocache container at the final stage is a painted .30 cal ammo box w/geocaching markings full with nice swag. Please take care and return ALL geocache containers to their EXACT "original placement". Their concealment is vital so that other cachers may enjoy the hunt as much as you have.

In fairness to others, please don't post spoilers, tracks, subtle text or pictures that are hints in your logs. Have fun and Enjoy!
