Geocache Description:

We've chosen Schoolhouse Brook Park as the 4th in our GAS SAVER series. On the North side of Clovermill Road you'll find 11 caches. You are looking for a 6X5X3 Lock n Lock container. Please rehide UPSIDE down.

This cache is on the Tamarack Trail. This is another of the homestead sites as you can tell by the stone walls. There sure were a lot of families that lived on this acreage. There are more large rocks off the trail in this area than we saw anywhere else.

At some point on your hike, stop at N41 46.636 W072 13.114 (off the Nipmuck trail) and see the 2 chimnies. They are well worth seeing. This must have been a GRAND place to live at one time.

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.
