Geocache Description:

THIS IS A NIGHT CACHE. Mark your car.

Park in the new parking lot at N40 15.130 W075 49.986. There are a couple trails heading into the woods. With a good flashlight you can scan the area and see a tree with a triangle of three fire tacks facing you. That is the trail you need to take. From now on there will be two tacks side by side and close together in a tree, about 8 feet off the ground, and just beyond any junction where a turn must be made. If there are no tacks continue on the same trail. If there are tacks, take that trail. All these tacks are on the right side of the trail. When you finally see three reflectors on the same tree, which is on the LEFT side of the trail and not at a junction, it is time to bushwhack. Stand beside that tree and look toward the woods. Continue to follow the string of reflectors. For the off-trail part, each set can be seen from the previous one if you look in the correct direction. When you see a set of four they will be just above the cache. NOTE.. this area is open to hunting so other reflective tacks may be present. Ignore any single tacks you see and remember the ones you need to see are well beyond the reach of most hunters. So... follow the fire tacks on the right, but be careful not to miss the three tack triangle on the left which is saying "follow the tacks from here through the woods to the cache".
