Lackawanna River Cache Traditional Cache

This cache is temporarily unavailable.

OReviewer: The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other caches from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it (using the Archive link in the upper right Admin Tools area) so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location.

If you plan on repairing this cache, please log a note to the cache (not email) within the next 30 days so I don't archive the listing for non-responsiveness.

Once it is repaired, click Enable in the upper right Admin Tools area; when post an Owners Maintenance log via the green "Log geocache" button.

Geocache Description:

The Little Whistler wanted his very own cache. He chose the container and the contents (including the logbook) all by himself, but dad helped him pick the hiding spot.

Parking is at the Rails to Trails trailhead. The gate is generally open during trout season, but driving through is entirely at your own risk. The terrain is three-tenths of a mile of flat trail, then 100' or so of a more rugged trail down towards the river to a nice fishing spot. We didn't have very good accuracy down there, but you are looking for an ammo can so there are not too many likely hiding spots! Please make sure to rehide the container well because there are often fisherman in the area.

Note: The foundations of cut stone you will see at GZ are remnants of the bridge abutments from the original Owego Turnpike, which opened in 1821 and was the route between Owego, New York and Milford, PA.
