Geocache Description:

The Stone Tower is a popular point of interest here in the Red House part of Allegany State Park. It's octagonal shape is formed by walls made from sandstone blocks that were quarried and cut nearby. Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1933-34, it's a credit to their craftsmanship. On three points of the compass are stone portals that lead to the center room and a staircase to the roof that is an observation point. Situated high on the Summit mountain ridge at 2202 ft above sea level, the Stone Tower makes for great views of Salamanca to the north and the Camp Allegany valley to the south. (there's a benchmark between the north and west doorways)
Please trade fairly and rehide the cache carefully for the next cacher.

Permit # ALL212

Please note: The cache is located within Allegany State Park. Between Memorial Day and Labor Day there is a vehicle use permit fee to enter the park.
