Geocache Description:

A two stage multi cache in Nomahegan Park. Suggested parking in the main car park opposite Union County College on Springfield Ave.

Nomahegan Park has a nice 2 mile walk around the outer limit of the park and along the Rahway River. There are a series of exercise stations and numerous benches along the lake, two playgrounds and extensive BBQ facilities. There are several free music festivals, craft shows etc over the spring, summer and fall.

The intended and ideal way to do this cache is to park at the suggested parking (N40 40.080, W074 19.072) and walk counter clockwise (CCW) around the lake. The coordinates above are for the first stage which contains the coordinates for the final stage. It is very close to a wide dirt trail that leads off from the main paved path. Return to the main path and continue CCW. The final stage is about a one minute hike off thru some minor brush. Cache is a 7"x4.5"x4.5" Lock&Lock container and contains the usual kid's swagger. Please rehide well. You can continue CCW back to the main car park. You will have have walked a nice healthy level two miles. Thanks for visiting! Please - no photos or spoilers of Stage 1.

For those who don't have the time or inclination to walk the full two miles around the park, you can park close to stage 1 at the end of Park Dr at N40 40.036 W074 18.771. For stage 2, there is a small car park at N40 40.422 W074 18.654. Walk 300ft NE on Kenilworth Blvd and enter the woods opposite Dorset Street.

Note: if you are combining this cache with the great TwoCat "Snow White" cache, do stage 1 after "Sleepy" but before "Grumpy" and find the final after "Sneezy" but before "Dopey". And look out for the "Evil Queen".
