Since this cache has been muggled and seems to be a popular spot we have moved the container to a nearby location that also contains ruins of the buildings. At the above location you will now find written in black marker the last three of the Lat. and Long. of the final hiding spot which is near more ruins of the factory.
Parking at N44 07.162 W077 35.103. Enter area by the two big rocks. There is poison ivy in the area, so stay on the little path. It is a hangout for youth so use stealth and watch for muggles. You could do this at night but then you would not be able to appreciate the view of the historical ruins we are sending you there to see. Daylight is best. Don`t remove the trash that is part of the camo, but feel free to CITO other areas tho` you may encounter poison ivy.
Thanksgiving Day 1918 was one of the blackest days in Trenton. As most people sat down to carve their turkeys the first of a series of ear shattering explosions rocked the town. They were to last all through the night, and by morning most of the people were fleeing the town in terror. It was a night never to be forgotten by those who watched the flames shooting into the sky from the giant British Chemical plant which was then Trenton`s largest multi million dollar industry. It was the largest ammunition factory in the Commonwealth. The plant covered 2,000 acres and contained 120 buildings on the northeastern limits of the town. The ammunition plant was gutted by the fire and the exposions were heard for many miles. There was NO loss of life. There was also no window panes left in Trenton.
The plant once located on the site of the Domtar Industies was never again rebuilt. These ruins are part of the plant.
You are looking for a small camoed container with only a log book.
