Geocache Description:

Traditional, regular-sized cache located in scenic Liberty State Park, just south of Jersey City, NJ. Additional coordinates for REAL surprise are provided below!

Area is forest and salt marsh, so it can get a little bit wet, maybe even a bit muddy. You DON'T have to cross any fences or bodies of water to reach the destination. Considering the overall terrain, this cache merits a 2.5 terrain difficulty during the winter months. During spring and summer, I'd rate this higher, since salt marshes and their insect inhabitants seem to thrive during these times of year. Trail conditions vary greatly.

Kids and pets (on leash) will enjoy this too! Once you find groundzero, a unique surprise, follow additional coordinates provided below to NEW CACHE SITE. No spoilers please.

Free parking is available at N 40° 41.955 W 074° 03.246. New Jersey Transit System stops nearby at the Liberty State Park stop. Bicycles can safely be locked up nearby as well. There are no park entrance fees at all. Bring a camera and try to visit around dawn or dusk - there are some incredible views of Manhattan and Lady Liberty from here! Enjoy!
