Geocaching with Fellow Escapees Near Marathon, New York

John reads clues from Experience
Cortland GeoCache as we scour
the roadside for a cache.

Rod, Sally, Ken, Mary Ann, Pat
& Sharon are on the hunt.

This cache was in a good

sized canister.

(Some goeocaches are

in car key boxes, or 

smaller containers.)

The geocache near Johnson's

Garage called Walter's Snow

Fighters in Lapeer was a

challenge.

This corner is the "home" to

 old Walter Snow Plows.

Across the road is the Stage Coach

Inn, also known as the Royal

Johnson House.

It's listed on the National Register

of Historic Places.

Rod climbs up on a truck to

"get the lay of the land."

The clue for this cache is angel wings.  All I see are snowplow blades.

Eric found this ammo box behind

a large snowplow blade.

Ken is recording the find.  Pat's

attention is elsewhere.

Now I get it!

A few of us drove up a

seasonal road.

I wandered along the roadside, looking for a stump or a log that may hide the geocache container.

First time geocacher, Sally,
climbed a steep ditch &
found this canister hidden
in the cleft of a tree.

This was a great group activity and a fun way to learn about this region of New York State.
