One mile loop trail around Hallockville Pond w/ 9 nature stations.
This cache is part of the Labrador series of caches placed in honor of wonderful Labradors in my life. This cache is in honor of Glenn Brook “Chino” Babe. Maddie, Guess, Corey and Emma are my sisters labs and Izzie is mine. Chino is gone now but far from forgotten. Chino was the mother of Maddie. Maddie is the mother of Guess. Guess is the mother of Emma and Corey. Corey is the mother is Izzie.
This is my favorite place to bring Izzie to go for a swim and a hike. If you visit these caches and have a dog please bring them along and leave a note and/or picture about them in “Chino”.
“Chino” is a medium sized lock and lock with an unactivated TB for the FTF; the others are film canisters.
