Geocache Description:

This cache is about a .6 mile (one way) walk from the parking spot. Plastic Jar covered with black tape.

Park in the parking area for Pickel Park to the right of the Gazebo. Walk between the two baseball fields straight past home plate of the field on the left. You will come to a clearing with a horse corral on the east side. The shortest distance will require bushwhacking. We walked to the South West corner of the field then down the south side of the next field then to the North West corner of the third field.
There is an old farm road along the south side of the fields that is worth a look.

When you are near the cache you will see a steep slope down to a brook. You can see an old hand made stone dam from the cache looking north west.

All the walking is on 'mowed' farm fields with the last 50 yards or so in woods. It can be done on a mountain bike. No real defined trails (yet).
This cache is a plastic jar. The lid is about 4" and the rest is about 5" square. It has black tape around it.
