CACHE INFORMATION:
The GZ is located about 0.5 miles from the Linden St. parking area, on the east side of "Horseshoe Pond", so it is advisable to take the fork to the left when approaching the water while on the blue trail (if coming from Linden St). Be sure to not take the closed trailhead to private property. The GZ is a small clearing about 50 feet from the trail that leads towards the water with randomly strewn large rocks (thanks glaciers!) No wading is necessary, but the area could get muddy in the summer season. The cache itself is a medium-sized clear tupperware with a purple lid.
I picked this location for its beautiful view of the pond, and for its proximity to the other caches in the area. These include caches such as WeLoveThisTrail (GC6NNN1), Ledges (GCJ5JT), Return to Tradition #11: Mount Pisgah (GCXB1H), and so on. These trails are perfect for a loop of cache-finding along the way.
