Candy Cache Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

OReviewer: From the Northern Region Office, New Jersey State Parks Department:


Over a year ago New Jersey enacted a policy that all geocachers must obtain a permit to have their cache on State Park property. We have informed all geocaching host that this is their responsibility and have given them ample time to go about getting their permits. At this time, over a year later, there are still several caches that haven’t complied.

We ask that as the land managers for the attached properties we would like to have these illegal caches removed.


Based on the list provided by the state, I am forced to archive this listing. If you have a permit, get a permit or don't believe your cache is on state park/forest land, please contact me via email. Make sure you include the GC code.

If you don't plan to get a permit, please remove your geocache so it doesn't become geo-trash.

Geocache Description:

Close to exit 19 on Route 80 west, find the right trail and your golden (orange or green might be a better choice).

Candy cache is just off exit 19 going west on route 80 in Northwestern N.J. Parking can be found at 40 degrees 55.470N / 074 degrees 48.515W along Route 517. There is room only for about 5 vehicles but I don't see all the spots full often. The area is frequented by mountain bikers and is state property.

Once you leave your car, you'll have to make a choice between two marked trails. Choose the right one and you'll climb right to the cache - wrong and a bushwack will be needed.

Beware! this is a serious uphill climb. That's why it's listed as a 3.5 difficulty on terrain. Cache is an ammo can full of goodies.
