Overpeck Park - Henry Hoebel Area Multi-cache

This cache has been archived.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:

Here's a multi-stage cache in Overpeck Park, one of the more diverse parks in Bergen County.

Henry Hoebel was the creator of the Overpeck Park system. He was also the mayor of Fort Lee in 1931, when the George Washington Bridge was dedicated. He also served as a Bergen County Freeholder.

Overpeck Park is one of the most widely-used parks in the Bergen County Park System, but I've never been here! So, we decided to make a day of it, explore the park, and drop a cache!

This park has several baseball fields, soccer fields, a football field, tennis courts.... and a 1.25 mile walking track that runs through the park.

This park is very dog- and bike-friendly, and many people were out on the paths with both. There is also a dog run in the southwest corner.

The park closes 1/2 hour after sunset.

ENJOY!
