Geocache Description:


This is a revival of the original cache Wolf Pits (GCGRF4) which was placed on 8/28/2003 by Dirtnapper


The first cache my best friend Rob Mercurio ever showed me. This has been inactive for years now, but is still hidden in its original spot. The original log book and replacement are still in the cache also! 
 

the original write up for the cache "

Along an old cattle trail

 

Update:Cache was moved slightly today to a new location in the same area, just more secure.
Approaching the cache area, watch for the wolf pits – see pics “Wolf Pits. During the 17th century wolves were a frequent danger to the lives of the people and their livestock. Today in the northern section of Lynn Woods there still exist narrow, rectangular, stone-lined holes, thought to be the remnants of the wolf traps.

"There is an old folk tale of an Indian woman falling into one of these baited traps and finding herself face to face with an incarcerated wolf. According to the story, they spent the night cowering in their respective corners in terror until help arrived in the morning.” Friends of Lynn Woods.
I checked this: 7/31/14..left some new swag."

 

come by and read some really old logs and enjoy a smiley on a republish of a 2003 cache!
