Geocache Description:

This is a multi-stage cache starting with coordinates to a micro (1st stage) that contains the coordinates to the final (ammo box). Hike a flat visible trail to micro and final, both short distances off the main trail.

Welcome to a little recreation area for the local community. You have permission to park near the water tower at the gate ( N39 41.535 W79 51.904 )and hike the loop trail that circles the park at the top of the hill.

The micro and final caches are located near the trail that is marked to the right of the water tower by three vertical green posts. The trail is wide enough for a vehicle, though it is closed to vehicles.

If you take the right trail, you will walk approximately .25 mile to the micro-cache, (cache coords listed here) then approximately 220 feet to the final, then another .2 mile back to the parking coordinates.

The final cache is well concealed but does not require anything to be moved to access it. Please do not modify the surroundings - simply slide the cache from its hiding spot, take care of business and slide it back into place.

Final

We have taken care to place the micro and final locations within sight of the main trail. If you can't see the trail you went too far!

Another trail to the left and behind the water tower leads elsewhere and will not provide easy access to the caches. You may hike it if you wish but it does not lead to the cache.

The first stage of the cache is an evil little black micro that has been hidden just off the trail near a foot path that leads between the trail and a nearby neighborhood along a series of mounds.
Evil?

Near the coordinates and near the end of the path before coming out the other side of the woods, look for a spot that might work well for a larger cache and then look for a very small micro-cache, attached to something nearby.

Inside the micro-cache are the coordinates to the final. Please copy down the coordinates and replace them for the next visitor. There is no log for the micro. Please replace the micro-cache carefully as you found it.
