CTReviewer: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have been looking at caches in the area and it looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache. If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link of your cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,
CTReviewer

Geocache Description:

We've chosen Schoolhouse Brook Park as the 4th in our GAS SAVER series. On the North side of Covermill Road you'll find 12 caches. This cache is a large container.

Cache is on Byron Trail. The view of Bicentential Pond is very pretty from this spot and the brook that feeds into the Pond is one that makes you smile. At least these brooks make us smile as they 'giggle' with noise as their waters rush over the rocks. As we were hiking here, Michael spied the perfect cache hiding location. Slight bushwack to this cache with some pricker bushes and VERY slippery rocks. In the spring and heavy rains it might be a bit wet. Sorry about that, but NO Geocacher scouting for a hiding place could pass this one up.

In total there are nineteen trails within Schoolhouse Brook Park, including a portion of the Nipmuck Trail. It is mature woods with views of a colonial mill site and many house sites and historic stone walls. This area includes Bicentennial Pond Recreation Area where the kids can play and you can picnic. Bicentennial Pond is a good fishing spot.

NONE OF THE CACHES ARE HIDDEN IN FOUNDATIONS OR STONE WALLS

Most of the trails are relatively flat and all are named. There are only a couple of them with modest grades.
